Well, to start, are you aware of every programming language in the world
today? Do you know if there are any programs that are secret and that you
have not been made aware of, because they are secret? It's perfectly
plausible that the MAGI use their own language especially as they have
very special and unique processors.

So what? I say that the MAGI use there own language. Why? Because you
can't determine which they use for sure and they are very unique and
specialized units.

..... I don't know what the hell you are talking about!
