In The Language Insufficiency Hypothesis, Bry Willis argues that human speech is a structurally flawed tool that fails as conceptual complexity increases. The text introduces the Effectiveness–Complexity Gradient, a diagnostic map illustrating how clarity collapses as we move from concrete Invariants to abstract Ineffables. Willis contends that we suffer from a Presumption Gap, habitually overestimating how well we are understood, while reaching an Effectiveness Horizon where more words only multiply confusion. Through examinations of law, politics, science, and AI, the author demonstrates how institutions use power and authority to manufacture a false sense of linguistic stability. Ultimately, the work serves as a philosophical toolkit for navigating a world where perfect communication is a structural impossibility.👉 https://philosophics.blog/2026/01/14/language-insufficiency-hypothesis-structural-limits-of-language/
