Why is the apostrophe so misunderstood? What's the solution? Who's the solution?

The difference between it’s and its is fairly simple, isn’t it? Or is it?
Whose fault is it that it’s so confusing. Yours? You’re sure? And it’s struck with the pinkie, a difficult finger to use. Or is it now used purely as decoration’?
