I definitely see your point. Since Bliss didn't really take off, we don't have to worry about it becoming Newspeak, lol! This is a good place to point out that the symbols were not meant to replace spoken languages; there is no verbal component to Bliss. It's more like a Tower of Babel idea, that misunderstandings between people and obvious falsehoods might be more easily spotted and corrected. Check out the book if you get a chance. He can explain it much better than I did! :-)
