re: hot take
Yeah, I had a really hard time reading those wiki links, couldn't understand every other word. Anyway what I'm saying, I'm saying about languages I know/speak. I would not claim anything about any language I do not know/speak, no matter how much linguistics I read.
My argument wasn't that, what is now adorably named PUI (pharase-based user interface), is aiming to be most like natural languages, it was instead, that it is based on natural language(some I guess) sentences/phrases, which are words separated with spaces. Which itself is mainly aimed to show that the question of spaces in names is not a "why not" question it is a "why" question. It is such on a practical level(compatibility, simplicity), and philosophical level, which I was forced to go into, since the argument against it was "it's just not right".
Apologies to anyone who I may have irritated.
