Superior in what way?
Because literacy rates in the "inferior" northeast asian languages was always WAY higher than the "superior" English writing system.
They've been dealing with the complexity of Chinese characters for the better part of 2,000 years, and they've done a pretty good job. The Koreans invented their own writing system but even that is not enough. There is a reason why most world languages were not alphabets.
