The video starts with a false premise. Afghanistan, Myanmar and Nepal are even less productive. No need to heap more abuse on Pakistan.

Debate is good. An academic thesis is an exercise in free thinking. heterodox ideas should be encouraged.

I think Bengali and Japanese would be more appropriate than Italian and Indonesian. Not only are they spoken by more people but also in terms of intellectual heft in literature and art.

The word now has become taboo, but fundamentally, it is what nationhood is. Incompatible people living apart. Whether it is "Two-State solution", "Two-Nation theory", dissolution of USSR, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, Pakistan (1971), they all represent separate nations for different peoples.
