This discussion is completely and utterly off-topic for this mailing 
list. If you want to discuss changing the world to use your own custom 
character set for all human communication, you should write a blog or a 
book. It is completely off-topic for Python: we're interested in 
improving the Python programming language, not yet another constructed 
language or artifical alphabet:

If you're interested in this, there is plenty of prior art. 
See for example: Esperanto, Ido, Volapük, Interlingua, Lojban. But don't 
discuss it here.
