I used to be a big Trek fan. I enjoyed playing an early interactive computer video game called “Star Trek: Klingon” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Trek:_Klingon) where it was actually useful to learn some of the Klingon language. But nowadays that made-up tongue just sounds to me like someone interminably trying to clear their throat, and I end up feeling as though I have to clear my throat too. It’s a nasty habit when you get into middle age.
