I cannot discuss on the basis that I gave up my literacy for legs. 🦵 🦵
Seriously though… I think I would rather be illiterate. I could learn how to read, and in the meantime there are assistive screen reader apps and apps that let you scan something to read it aloud.
While there are bionic legs and I would love the chance to have tall robot legs 🦿🦿, I haven’t done enough research on the long term effects of walking around with two fully bionic legs, or how much leftover leg is required to attach a bionic leg, etc.
Self-reply because it occurred to me… if I had to be illiterate and could never learn to read or write again, I’m absolutely choosing the no legs option. My above answer is entirely predicated on the fact that I’m very good at picking up other languages and other alphabet systems, and therefore could re-learn fairly quickly… but if that’s not an option then I’m going legless and saving money on dress pants. Shorts for life 🩳
