Non-native speakers who suggest that countries arbitrarily modernize or change their language remind me of non-musicians who come around with a new replacement for traditional sheet music. Even if it was a good idea, which in this case it's patently not, it's just not gonna happen.

It's a failure to recognize that languages (which I would rank music a kind of) evolve organically, and outside of some edge cases, like Esperanto, they're not artificially created in a vacuum.
