As is Finnish. And we do well. But the writing system was invented 600 years ago. So those Siberian-Eskimo-etc weird plosives and ingresses slowly disappeared, even if they were originally coded in the script.

As an anecdote: if the English had invented the writing system of Finnish, regular Goodnight ie "Hyvää Yötä" would have been written "Hiouaa'aa Io'ootaa". This is why these written Native American languages look so bad.
