I can't read the article because I'm at my limit for free Economist articles this week.

Does the article assert that English is the only language that is great with puns or is noticeably better than other languages at puns? That's what your points are addressing. The title only implies that English is great for puns, saying nothing about whether or not others are too.

Why suffer? uMatrix + uBlock Origin for the win. I don't see any ads or any ad blocker blockers.
