You're just describing information theory. Every message is contextualized within the codebooks used to encode/decode it. Sometimes we call that codebook "language", sometimes it uses another representation.

Yes, we should develop a new theory of language based on an information theory approach rather than a discrete symbol approach, or maybe something involving both.

But you can’t say information theory as it stands gives us a completely satisfactory model of human language. Something will need to be built on top of it.
