True enough, but I personally think that Lojban is an exceptional

I think Lojban actually has more interesting potential as an "artistic"
language than a "logical" language.
Lojbanists praise the language's unambiguousness, but human beings are
so good at resolving ambiguous messages that I'm not sure the lack of
ambiguity gives Lojban much power. But the breadth of tenses, aspects,
attitudinals, etc., seems to truly distinguish Lojban from natural
languages.
