You are just talking about the most of people who are too weak to make this trade because their cultures and traditions are pathetic.

No offense to whatever culture you feel you belong to, but I don`t think the majority of the world goes through training that makes them wish they would die.
Therefore, it has nothing to do with the *natural* progression of language, nor does it have much of anything to do with the plight of the normal human being. That is what this is about - *most* people. Of course there are extreme exceptions - but that`s all they are, exceptions. If you consider most people weak, and their cultures pathetic... Umm, okay, good for you. But your opinion isn`t actually going to change the fact that most people in the world push toward having a "comfortable" life.
