This was one of those "should I retract the post?" moments. As soon as I posted it, I realised my mistake. As for the syllabary, that's just me being lazy. Apart from being a natural gift of mine, enahnced by years of studious cultivation, my laziness in this has been exacerbated by the excellent Baraha software, which I use to write devanagari. Because I'm typing letters, I tend to think of the output as letters, even though I know they are really (a garland of) syllables. I was also attached to the "four-letter word" idea for Raj, since the Indians I know who lived under the Raj tend to think of it in those terms.
