The Constructed Language Hypothesis

[ReneZ]

Do you count the presence of null text within your idea of a meaningful solution?

Null text is strictly a cipher thing.

In the context of a constructed language, there is no place for nulls.
Or at least, it would not make any particular sense.

Now, in the frame of my question about a word-by-word substitution:
*if* a word-by-word translation can be ruled out on some basis (that we do not yet have),
then, the text could still be meaningful, if:
- there is a verbose substitution
- the person(s) doing the text conversion had some degree of freedom (which would really explain quite a lot!)

A verbose substitution and some degree of freedom would both arise if the person(s) doing the text conversion was using nulls.
