Especially, that litterature focuses on methods and not on language,
while numerous programing languages are named, started from logo
(children can starts to learn slow with).

I recently had a discussion on that list where for subject a "numerous
human languages translated" programming language (named SPEL).
Nothing to do with an Esperanto-like.

And how I disagreed on the new Babel problem it will introduces...

This reference points the fact "the problem" is solved differently
depending on the programming language itself (don't know who said
the famous "come from"). While depending on the problem to solve
it is often better to choose the right programming language. Even
a language is Turing-compliant, it is harder to build the right
machine depending on the nature of the problem (a hammer is not
the right tool to swat a fly).

That document emphasises on methods.
