Since Tolkien is our patron saint, so to speak, Quenya and Sindarin I
agree should be there.  Other than that, any conlang devised by a person

By the very nature of what an auxlang is, that's inevitable.  If the
Perfect ConIAL exists, then why would you make another proposal?  Why
not support the Perfect One?
