MO was very careful to devise a system of transliteration in which
ambiguity is impossible. The only problem I find is the capital I being
mistaken for lower case L in sans-serif fonts, which makes it harder to
read constructions like {lIlI'moH} or {'IllI'}. Even then, anyone familiar
with Klingon phonology will figure it out pretty quickly.
