It's not that it doesn't occur to people to do that, it does - most people CAN read it, and most of the time it's not even that confusing. It just really, really, really goes against English orthography convention, which can seriously throw people off. And for people whose reading method is more visual than mental-auditory, it can also be awkward because you have to 'piece together' the lines and sentences rather than having them flow out naturally. (If your reading method is more focused on 'hearing' the words rather than seeing them, I suspect the problem is not as severe because spacing issues don't effect the word flow as much).

And for a lot of people it just seems like design blasphemy to do it this way - yeah, sure, it's technically readable, but not ~easy to read~, which in a place like F!S is important.
