No, I don't think Read Aloud works as much as anyone thinks. It isn't a retcon, it's a continuity error.

Lola has been established to be capable of reading in Ties That Bind (reading Lincoln's cookies), she can spell (Baby Steps), and is a notorious diary reader (No Laughing Matter).

Also, I have to ask; it's realistic for Lola not knowing how to read but for Lana to know?
