You know, what looks best to me in print is falling diphthongs with u
and i — ai, au, ei, oi — but rising diphthongs with y and w — ya wi,
we, etc. And I think that's not rational, and I should opt for one
or the other. But that's one reason I opted to drop y and w. I
didn't like the look of aw, ay, ey, etc.
