I would say it's a mixture of lack of words and lack of phrasal
idiom.
Frankly, though, I consider the self-similarity of existing words,
and the vast array of accidental tongue twisters, to be more serious
problems than the lack of vocab. The language is *physically* hard
to speak, to an extent that is distinctly unpleasent.
I was wondering if you could elaborate on that. And what do you think can be done about it?
