I favour (2), and because of that I think we don't yet know enough to create a successful loglang, tho that doesn't block work on some areas of the grammar, such as the phonology (-- not such an interesting or important matter for loglangs) or the 'predicaticon' (i.e. the lexicon but leaving the morphophonological aspect of lexical entries blank).

Let's say that by publishing something on (3) I closed that topic.
So let's discuss (1). Any ideas?
Just a pre-draft would be fine.
