It appear you subscribe to the same misinformation regarding Cued Speech as many of the interpretors and members of the Deaf community, that I am familiar with, subscribe to. It is not about learning to speak.

And which came first, loml, the oral mode or the written mode? I'll answer that for you. The oral mode. Therefore, even written English is a mode for conveying an orally based langauge.
Perhaps it is not the terps, the Master TODs and the members of the deaf community that are so much in error, as it is the supporters of CS.
You seem to be incapable of understanding that acquiring language and learning a language are two very different processes, and it is the assumption that one can overcome deficits created by failure to acquire language can be overcome with teaching a language.
