I'm not familiar with the gzip algorithm unfortunately. But imagine, if you're familiar with Vim, that each character in English represented some "idea" and combining them together combined the ideas just like in Vim. Then with 4 letters you could theoretically reach 26^4 concepts. Actually this is similar to how Chinese works.
For example the ideogram for "grass/straw/manuscript" when combined with "berry" makes "strawberry".
Why don't you familiarize yourself with it then? You're basically trying to argue a point you know nothing about, and then getting snippy that people aren't "refuting" a point that you have provided no basis for. Until humans can store large amounts of arbitrary context in their heads, and look it up very rapidly, we will not be using any kind of table based compression algorithms.
And that is exactly how English works. You take a basket, and a ball, and make basketball. Or grape, and soda, and make grape soda.
For example the ideogram for "grass/straw/manuscript" when combined with "berry" makes "strawberry".
