The moment I read the headline, the first words to come to my mind were - "How to Grow a Language" by Guy Steele. Hadn’t the author heard that?
Then, when I read the piece, most were already known to me.
One should watch the marvelous guide by Patrick Henty Winston- "How to Speak".
He also has a book called- "Make it Clear". I highly recommend this.
