That's why we can have poetry, can't we? And that's how we can memorise
things more easily too.
No, Boolean algebra doesn't do what I would like to be able to do. It''s not
a spoken language. You'd need to be able to read it phonetically.

If there are more ways to store the same value, you end up with a language
like english: a zillion different ways to say the word "hill", and a zillion
different minor differences with each of those ways to say the word "hill".
Hummock, tussock, rise, ridge, mountain... they're all the same. Aren't we
confusing ourselves at that point?
Besides, there already is a language that does much of what your new one
would do: Boolean Algebra. We could study that for a while I suppose. It's
like an end-all shorthand, the things you can say in that language and your
meaning will *NEVER?* be ambiguous...
