I note from your profile that you are an ATCO. Can I please ask you what experience you have of talking to other ATC units on a global basis from the cockpit of an aeroplane?
Not 46 years as you have. I am 28. But, yes, I have as it happens.

The only secret to communicating is no secret at all. It is called "getting used to it" and my experience is that the licence held has b*gger all to do with it.
Experience.... that word again! "Getting used to it" sounds very much like "experience" to me! How would one "get used to it" otherwise? For real? Where it matters?

P.S. I do hope you can speak Cornish.
Not yet, but I'm a quick learner

I'm not here to defend myself personally btw. I asked a question which, in my opinion, needs addressing if the MPL is to be workable in an operational day-to-day environment.
