Out of curiosity, what's to prevent the "natural" evolution of lojban
from violating some of the design goals?

I've a pet project involving computer interpretation of lojban.  I
specifically liked lojban for its lack of syntactic ambiguity and
audio-visual isomorphism.  The loss of these features would render the
language useless, IMHO.

If there's no difference between lojban and Esperanto except that the
words are harder to memorize in lojban, why bother?  Especially since E
has more speakers.
