Not pretending to understand much of what Wittgenstein was saying, but I 
think it actually quite relevant in the context of your full post that, 
according to Betrand Russel, Wittgenstein's thinking was profoundly 
influenced by projective geometry and his early philosophy was in some 
sense applying the principles of what he found there to linguistics.

Perhaps the ultimate VHLL can be defined as one that most perfectly 
facilitates the ability to preserve meaning in a transformation from 
human linguistic hardwiring to machine hardwiring.

How do they come up with this stuff?  ;)
