Much to the horror of generations older than me, I never learned to ride a horse/mule and managed to transport myself just fine all my life, even during visits to rural areas and hiking remote parts of Arizona.
I'm pushing 50, but I work with the public and have noticed that except for the very young and some teens, most people in their teens and 20s can read cursive enough to navigate the world even if they were never formally taught it.
Also, in my particular industry it's nice to not have as many "translation mistakes" from the 8289327497492 different styles of submitted cursive scrawling that led to data entry mistakes because "Is that a A or Q or etc?" isn't in play as much.
There's pros and cons...maybe we're at the end of the line for doctor prescription pad jokes...
I'm more than happy living in a print + typed world.
