The only reason language even has any statistical dependencies to study is because it's imperfect.

I guess the truth lies in between those two definitions, since it's definitely not a deterministic protocol

Tentative on my part: plenty of phenomena in language that are not 'efficient for communication'. Chomsky was NOT a fool.
