f and v would make more sense in terms of the actual sounds made?
Depends on the language. In German, f and v sound similar. And from your profile description I am guessing you are from the Netherlands, which I guess also might have f and v sound very similar to one-another.
In Swedish, Norwegian, and Danish, we have pretty clear distinction between f and v.

That's pretty interesting, on the face of it its not a bad idea at all to just merge v and w... simplify language without losing much resolution.
