Bilingualism affords no general cognitive advantag...
If “bilingualism” is expanded even further to include having wealthy parents who are legacies at Harvard, I would say it does have an effect on outcomes.

I don't get your sarcasm. How do 'wealthy parents who are legacies at Harvard' constitute a language in any form?

Ugh, you’re right. I guess they’re as orthogonal to bilingualism and spoken languages as programming languages and math are. My mistake.

Sarcasm doesn't translate well over the internet, I highly doubt even 10% of readers understand what your trying to say.
If your not going to clarify, I'm going to move on.
