Great story! I'm just impressed at the ability you seem to have to write and understand both Business English and Normal English. As a universal translator, I bet your skill is about to be highly marketable.
Toward the end of my career, corporate speakers among the younger generations was heading that way. I'm glad I'm retired. In plain English, we'll written Bill.
"There may be war because a war would establish boundaries, clarify the differences between the two states, and create permanent independence for the Business English speakers."
It is easier to go to war than to build bridges by learning another language. Though if you're still living in Japan, I imagine you'll probably find that statement funny. Anyways, good story.

Good story, Bill. It showed me that I'm bilingual. I hope the family is able to stay together.
Business English is just another language. ;-)
