That would unfairly reduce english to a variant of “newspeak” like in Orwell’s novel.

English is a rich language, it has an endless well of vocabulary, most of which have fallen out of use but they remain valid.

And for the lack of anglo-saxon literature, I will forever despise Henry VIII for destroying the english monasteries and all the richness they contained.
