Despite obvious advantages, no generalised ideographic codes have evolved through cultural evolution to rely on iconicity. Morin suggests that this is because of missing means of standardisation, which glottographic codes get from natural languages. Although we agree, we also point to the important role of the available media, which might support some forms of reference more effectively than others.
尽管存在明显的优势，但文化进化并没有产生通用的表意文字代码来依赖象似性。莫兰认为，这是因为缺乏标准化手段，而语音文字代码则来自自然语言。虽然我们同意这一点，但我们也指出了可用媒体的重要作用，这些媒体可能比其他媒体更有效地支持某些形式的参照。
