The presence of the single dot determines how to read the grapheme, ie which specific letter of the alphabet it is.
A missing dot over the “i” in the Latin alphabet is unambiguously a mistake (depending on the font or script style). But if you missed the horizontal crossbar within the letter “t”, you would read it as an “l”. For example, confusing “mate” as “male”.
