I don’t have a problem with reverse readings per se, but I don’t get why you feel it’s easier than reading forward. Aiin or Niia are exactly the same as far as parsing choices go. Ai in , a ii n, or ni in, n ii a.
It’s clear that the e and I families exist with zero to four repetitions before a final ligature regardless which direction you read it in.
The e and I aren’t stand alone characters. Let’s say that each I or e simply indicate an addition or subtraction from the final character. Say n actually is an n, but in is actually m, iin is L, iiin is k.
Of course they could be part of a column row table with the number of i’s as the rows pointing to a single character, digraph or syllable… who knows?
I just don’t get the Reva being easier.
