What about English?  Irregular grammar is only a tiny part of the language
modeling problem.  Uaing an artificial language with a regular grammar to
"simplify" the problem is a false path.  If people actually used Logban then
it would be used in ways not intended by the developer and it would develop
all the warts of real languages.  The real problem is to understand how humans
learn language.
