Oh sure, I agree with the first sentence of your original reply into the conversation (“you know it’s unlikely to happen…”)
And the language uniting part, you know what, it has been a bone of contention with the current ruling party feeding this exact narrative(one nation, one language) and trying to force the different parts to use one language. And no, it’s not English that’s being forced (which may have still made sense as English is more common throughout the country than any one regional language - and globally acceptable)
It’s not feasible to begin with (and I can understand if someone who’s not lived or been there to feel how strange it must be. It is. But it’s not inefficient, it’s been like that for 1000s of years and has worked well). No one wants to change their language and all efforts to try doing that have cause more harm than good.
Sorry for the wall of text, I’m kind of a language-fan and believe that language is an integral part of one’s identity and language imposition is one big part of domination and giving a slow death to a culture. It has sadly happened several times in course of history by invaders.
Chao ca co ladies!
