The typing quirks actually serve a purpose in the comic. Almost all communication among the characters takes place through chat logs, so the system provides a handy way to visually distinguish who’s speaking. They also reinforce each character’s personality and thematic associations—for example, the character quoted above (Aranea) is associated with spiders, arachnids in general, and the zodiac sign of Scorpio.
Unfortunately, all that is irrelevant in the context of a Rationality Quote.
Is there a reason all the b’s have been replaced by 8′s?

You’re right, never mind. Still internalizing the new set of ancestors.
