I think consistency within the Architecture tiles alone would make letter prims useful but I forgot why we cared enough to stop.
I think it was because it is easier to use txt2dat than to manually position primitives. Manually positioned ones might also have incorrect kerning (although I guess there's no guarantee that the kerning from txt2dat matches the original parts).
