When I worked data entry, there was a chart for cursive as people couldn't understand cursive writing, and these were adults. I think this may check out (not because they're lacking, but because they probably weren't taught).

I know how to read and write in cursive but there are still a lot of people whose handwriting I can't read because it's so sloppy and idiosyncratic. A chart wouldn't help me.

That's true. But the chart was more like, "this is what cursive looks like" sort of thing. Like, some people couldn't recognize a curve "G" or other "different" letters. But I've certainly seen some cursive that might as well have been an alien language 🤣
