ELI5: Why are natural language programming languages not the standard yet?
1. that seems like a lot of work when instead you could just type shorthand that everyone understands.
2. natural languages are ambiguous
3. isn't parsing natural languages NP-complete or something
Because everything else works just as well.

context sensitive at least

Because when I type a statement in my program, I want to know exactly what it does, which requires me to know how it is processed. Natural language processing means I can never be certain my code is interpreted how I think it is.
Thanks
