Why even make a language, if there are plenty of existing languages to choose from?

Just pick the most widely understood one and you're done.

Any natural language is way harder than Esperanto.

One problem in international relationships is that native speakers of the language that is used will always be able to express themselves better than others and will thus have an advantage in debates and discussions. The original idea was that everyone should learn Esperanto as a second language which would level the field and improve international relations.
