Thats true people know the words and associate what they know with what they see. BUT, for instance take an illiterate person or for instance my little brother that is very smart he wouldnt be able too because he cant associate it with what he reads. Why is that?

What's funny is that an email/message circling the internet not too long ago said that everyone can read it because our brain only associates the first and last letters and we rarely use the rest. I think the 55% stuff is just a twist on an old gimic.
