Why isn’t there a universal sign language? One that everyone around the world could learn so that they would be understood no matter where they lived, or travelled to? Who decided it was a better idea to have more than one?

It’s like how there isn’t a universal spoken language. Different cultures in different regions express ideas, emotions and actions differently, it would’ve been hard to find one set of sign language that can incorporate it all. Like how English speakers don’t have a specific term for deja vu (French) or hikikomori (Japanese). Those concepts and many others would be hard to stuff into one universal language. IMO of course.
