Interesting video! However it doesn't ever touch on the point that English is a natural language which has evolved over 1400 years or so.
Thats a good point but I feel like the video is based on the more modern problems. On how it's evolved so far that problems like these were never though of in the past.

I don't see them as a problem. At least in my opinion, the entire point of language is to communicate thoughts, ideas, emotions and a few other things. If we understand each-other, then language has succeeded. English wasn't methodically planned out, nor does it need to be.

I have to at least half agree with this statement. Looking at words that sound the same or are spelled the same, etc, is an unhealthy approach to deciding a root causes to modern day language problems. The problems with language are much much more heavily rooted/complex.
