The character simplification thing is an Official Government Project, yes, but it's also a project done in more than one stage. There was a stage of simplification done in the 80s that was completely retracted, but some people now still use those logograms...I saw a few the other day, and I was like shit if I saw this irl I'd just stare at it forever and be confused. Plus apparently a few traditional logograms are going to be 'revived' in the next few years, so yeah...:|
