That would be my hope, so I'm glad to hear that. But in every case,
this should be for the native speakers of variants of languages to
decide, and it *should* be decided from a perspective of love and
harmony and rationality (mutual intelligibility being key) as opposed
to for nationalistic reasons. It *can* *still* be the case that
somewhat close languages should split if the overall impact is
positive.
