Your second point, that it's never worked before, is fallacious. One only need to look to China and realize that their *ideographic* writing was a major factor in the cohesiveness of their dynasties.
Your third point, about typing, is valid. There are alternatives to keyboard typing such as David MacKay's Dasher. In fact, he's working on incorporating a variation of Blissymbolics, called the Semantic Alphabet, into his program.
Your last point is not very good. First, it's not true, and second, it's culturally insensitive. Language death is real, and a great loss to the human species. I can only hope that someday, you will see the error in your thinking.
