    “C” has a purpose separate from sounding like “K.” It can also sound like “S,” as in “centennial”, an SH, as in “special,” or make a unique sound when paired up as “CH,” as in church. Maybe there should just be a separate character for the “CH” and “SH” sounds, but that’s not how the language developed.
