I totally agree. That is why I found it so valuable studying Germans who seem to intuitively see semantics particles within these long words. Sort of like pattern recognition but with some pragmatism/inference. Reasoning skills are used as a beginner learning to read German to try and distinguish where the word components are vs. a long string of characters. Very interesting to think about.
If we continue this discussion, we should change the thread title.
