Personally I don't find greek letters problematic. In contrast, I was traumatised by upper-case Fraktur font in older abstract algebra texts.

- jks 2y agoFraktur is still used in model theory, but I don't believe that is easier to write than A' or  or something like that. Set theory has aleph א and beth ℶ which are refreshingly not Greek but Hebrew letters.
