bartlett22183:Several years ago I wrote an essay, "Thoughts on IAL Success" (in English). This is a personal reflection, not a scholarly study. It is not about Esperanto in and of itself, but it does use E-o as a sort of paradigm of inquiry, as I put it. Here or here if you have a problem with the tilde characterWe're looking for questions, not essays. #Humor
No, seriously, we're also looking for essays, I guess.
"Good Enough" is a glittering generality. You were obviously struggling to write it clearly. Precising definitions are extremely difficult with glittering generalities. It's easier to just drop such essentially contested concepts and focus on something else.
My favorite part was Section 3. The unstated assumption is that the key ingredient of IAL success is luck.

Grown:"Good Enough" is a glittering generality. You were obviously struggling to write it clearly.What is your obsession with calling everything a "glittering generality"? You use that term in every thread and have spamed my blog with it. You keep using it as an excuse to be rude and insult other people. You are not being helpful to the discussion at all.

Here or here if you have a problem with the tilde characterThanks for sharing, that's really interesting. I agree with what you wrote and my article covers a lot of similar ground. Your point about being "Good Enough" is a key factor that I wanted to emphasise. I remembered hearing the principle before (perhaps from your article) but I couldn't find it again when I was researching your article.
