There will be a point in human civilization when the amount of commonly understood knowledge will become more than the language framework can bear. Humanity will need to do away with the bloated complex language and find a way to communicate concepts

Through a simplified but more universal language. A word can only be used in so many ways, it limits and restrains the ideas we mean to convey. However if we find a conceptual language framework this will no longer be a problem. As the baseline for common human intelligence increases, our current forms of language will continue to lag behind.

No. We need to do away with all current languages. We need a new language that conveys complex concepts more accurately. The words we use today are shallow and cannot ever hope to fully depict the workings of our mind. They can only show a small fraction of our true intentions in speech.
