I dunno but those all sound like solvable problems and I think latine enbies will do great at solving them as long as latine binaries listen to them instead of calling the enbies anglos.
Any linguistic problem is technically solvable, just invent new words, add more rules and call it a day, you can do that for any language. Getting people that grew up and have used it for decades to accept is one hell of an uphill battle, especially as many will say the changes "are making up words to please half a dozen people"
That's why it's very important for all of us to be positive towards attempts to improve language.
My fav response to that reasoning: all words are made up words. That's how languages work
