A language is a map to reality, a survival strategy in a changing world. More languages equals more chances of surviving (and thriving!). The depth of intelligence in a human language developed and tested over millennia is truly incredible, more than I believe most of us can appreciate. In a language there exist tactics/knowledge lying dormant waiting for the right circumstances for application. Human languages are not developed in a world favoring local maxima, but in a chaotic world favoring true robustness and antifragility. We would be fools to surrender a time-tested model of nature, to allow languages to die.
