I very much agree. Look at it this way: the more we practice and keep our languages truly complex, the longer it will take for machines to take our jobs. I even take it one step further and actively try to confuse the machines by training my Swiftkey keyboard and Google searches in poor grammar. Take that Skynet!

(No but seriously, I would never equate human and programming languages. They are created for different purposes. PLs are a formalisation of languages, yes. But that is like saying notes are by themselves music. They are, but there is a whole lot more in between there)
