If Esperanto is unacceptably Western-IE-centric, how does it happen that 
so many of the best Esperanto stylists (many of whose works are notable 
also for their *content*) have been Hungarians? (Baghy Gyula, Kalocsay 
Kalman, Szathmari Sandor, ...)  And that there have also been noteworthy 
contributors to original Esperanto literature from Japan, China, and IE 
communities as far from the Franco-Polish axis as Icelandic and Bengali?
