Request: don’t count character writings when writing words that contain that character. Or at least provide an option for this behaviour.
Reason: Every time a word is written, the due date for the characters it contains gets pushed out further. This means that, once you have three or four words containing a given character, you’ll never get asked to recall that character based on its definition.
Background: I recently moved country and started a new job, and in the process got very very far behind on my skrittering. Now that I’ve taken it up again, I decided to tackle the character lists first (via advanced). This has been a shock! It’s very clear that I barely know most characters from their definition, even though I can easily write them once I know which character it is.
