我的見解是，一旦玩（使用）漢字，陷入象形的泥沼，就長不大了

based on my theory of years, the very reason of preventing Chinese to discover the world is their languange, Chinese Characters.

Chinese Character is a trap! it looks so obviously "true" because of its graph mimic to the nature. However, it blocks the sound of the languange, therefore blocks (shuts down) your thinking forever.
