Why even use articles or pronouns, a better way would be to unambiguously mark every word with whether they're the object subject or whatever role it is in the sentence. Maybe tack on more flags as you need them for more information as needed

Hence why forcing my team to learn Hungarian has really been a no brainer and will really start to pay dividends in the next decade when we finally reach a working professional proficiency

No, that's not the point. (Most languages do make subject/object fairly clear.)

The point of pronouns is to have a short alias to refer to a previously introduced noun.
