The list is an accumulated averaging of various morphological and phonological features. Nothing to do with written language features. European languages tend to be high up in complexity since they overspecify for a lot of grammatical categories like gender, definiteness, irregular verb forms, and obligatory agreement that would be considered redundant in many other languages.

English is actually the kind of language one would expect from that kind of language mixture. In order to reduce the barrier of communication, certain features (like grammatical gender for instance) are shorn off. This reaches its extreme with pidgin and creole languages.
