Advantages of a Standard Language

Using English as a base and build a standard international language which does not belong to any nation has following advantages:

1/ easier to learn
2/ easier to extend
3/ more accurate machine translation
4/ computers can understand it better (more high-level programming languages)
5/ countries can adopt it as international language without causing nationalism conflicts. I have seen French, German, Japanese, etc who know English but reluctant to use it. You can see this fact in their products and services as well. Last year, in Frankfurt airport, I could not figure out how to check my emails as everything was in German.


PS. There is no perfect natural language in the world. Natural languages represent culture and history of nations. As each nation should keep their language, so I should make it clear that I am not talking about changing British or American... English.
