Just one thing: English hasn't changed in 400 years? How about the use of
the 3rd person plural as a neuter 3rd person singular? ("When a person uses
the masculine to include the feminine, THEY ARE being sexist"). This usage
has become very common recently, to the extent that, I daresay, it can no
longer be consider "incorrect". That's just one example.
