Perhaps it would help if someone that's been here for a long will would dust off some of those early theoretical discussions. And publish them again. They did explain the (then) future goal remarkably well, although developing the software has clearly been much more difficult than developing the concept. But, of course it has evolved a bit, just as did Loglan, an artificial language, that initially appeared to have the goal of providing a "logical language" in which all hidden implications were to be removed for the basic language elements and applied only as modifiers, thus not carrying the hidden meanings that so much of natural language carries--baggage to confuse those not speaking it as natives (but who usually detected the inconsistencies better than the natives). Ten years later hardly anyone remembered that stated goal. Every human effort soon develops a life of its own and usually develops into something not originally planned.
