Only if you suck at cursive. Depending on how much effort I put in, both my cursive and print writing can look nice, but writing cursive causes mess stress over time. If I’m just jotting a quick note it doesn’t matter and both look like ass, but if I’m taking notes for lecture or in a D&D campaign or something like that, where I’m writing a bunch over an hour or more, I see a huge drop off in quality after a bit of time when writing print.
My mother sucks at cursive then. I have to constantly call her when I do her shopping. If it was for personal notes, it wouldn’t matter, but if you’re communicating with other people, it’s terrible.
Oh wow. You got me champ. You found a font in the world.
Now tell me this. When was the last time you saw someone use cursive fonts? Read any papers lately with cursive font? Any articles using the font? Anything at all?
Nope. Didn’t think so.
I learned cursive and school and it’s still harder to read than print. Is it impossible? No. But it’s definitely not the same as reading print. It doesn’t take a genius to understand this.
Nope.
Legibility > speed.

Some people just have terrible hand writing, cursive or not
Yeah, but I don’t know anyone whose cursive is more legible than their printing.
Sure, but cursive is still faster. So legible cursive is a good compromise.

Once you’re good at it you can have both…
No matter how you slice and dice it cursive is harder to read than print.
Not necessarily, unless you just never learned it.
Well if you’ve never learned it then you won’t be able to read it at all.
There is nothing controversial here. It’s harder to read than print. Which is exactly why you don’t see cursive fonts.
I didn’t know what rock you’ve been hiding under, but you’re wrong.

Nah, even my wife’s well written cursive is hard for me to read because similar letters like n, m, u, and r tend to blemd together for me.
Hell, I find all cursive fonts difficult to read and those are extremely consistent.
