If Waite disagreed with the system of aligning the tarot trumps with the Hebrew alphabet, why did he use so many of the the Hebrew letters as symbols in many of his cards? Or was this PC Smith's idea?

Fulgour said:Oswald Wirth's 22 Majors, created in 1889,
and reprinted in 1927 were the model here.
The Fool is "paired" with the letter Shin.
Shin is letter 21 ~and this is a mystery.
No one can explain why The Fool would be
Shin and not, properly, Tav (as letter 22).
I think it goes back to an old superstition
just tucking The Fool between XX and XXI.
