By then language is not evolving anymore so there is a code for each word. Clustercode will finally become a part of Unicode--this time named right. By then everything has been said so there is a code for each sentence. At some point in this timeline the ISO (Intergalactical Standards Organization) went out of business because 1,000,000,000,000-page printed volumes became unpractical to ship.
