According to a researcher (sic) at Cambridge University, it doesn't matter in what order the letters in a word are, the only important thing is that the first and last letter be at the right place. The rest can be a total mess and you can still read it without problem. This is because the human mind does not read every letter by itself but the word as a whole.

That is wild. Although as they say "you can never really proof read your own work because your not really reading it because you already know what its supposed to say", so you will almost always miss some of the corrections your hoping to catch.
