Wouldn't it be simpler - and better to simply prohibit whatever offensive word in whole?
After all - the symbology of written word is a substitution for verbal communication -- and the swapping of letters is just substituting a substitute.
Anyone with a bare minimum of literacy mentally corrects any substitution - making the word wholly readable.
Sh* t, * hit, shi*, --- the positioning of the cypher swap really doesn' t help.
You know what they' re saying - the communication is complete - and the offensive word still used.
Just seems more honest to me.
