He's right, of course. It should be much simpler.  But Lojban inherited a lot from Loglan, including all the mistakes JCB made in the first few days.  The result has been a 60year quest to get back what was thrown away and that quest has taken the form of countless incremental adjustments, rather than scrapping the whole thing and starting from just before the first mistakes. Lojban did also jettison some things Loglan had right, but these were less significant.
