Lemmy

Ok, but x sounding like sh is not ok. We need to normalize spelling stuff like it’s pronounced. Otherwise every language is going to become like the English.
I disagree. X is a useless letter in English; it’s always copying other letters or combinations of letters. Meanwhile, there’s a special rule where putting an ‘s’ and an ‘h’ together makes a different sound. Why not have a single letter for that?

Because a diphthong is fine. Taking a already used character and assigning a new sound to it is going to make things hard.

Also I need you to argue not just from the English point of view, but all Latin alphabet using languages, in particular those with strict rules of pronunciation like German.

strict pronounciation rules german

Nah, this aint it. Finnish has strict pronounciation rules but German is pretty loose.
