Urgh, I resent the english language so much. It's so inconsistent and weird and unintuitive, which my dumb-dumb rules-focused brain just does not gel with. We should all just use Esperanto or something instead.
You must resent every single natural human language then, since all of them show the exact same kinds of irregularities, for the most part.
And, if we all did decide to use Esperanto because it's regular (and therefore artificial), irregularities would inevitably be introduced within a single generation, because the nature of human language is to change, and that change will always result in irregularity.
Minor nitpick, you have causality inverted. Esperanto is artificial and therefore regular.
No, I have it the right way around. Artificial languages can be irregular, so your order doesn't follow.
No regular language can be natural, though, so if you come across a regular language, you can always correctly conclude that it's artificial through modus tollens:
"If a language is natural, then it is not regular. This language is regular, therefore it is not natural."
