>With the creation and proliferation of Modern Hebrew, there was a cost, though. Yiddish, Judeo-Arabic (the language Maimonides wrote a lot of literature in), and Ladino were victims of the centralization of Hebrew as the common language for Jews.

As if they would have survived in the 20th/21st century without the respective communities being isolated (as it was the case when they existed).

They'd be forgotten aside from token phrases and liturgical uses maybe, like Yiddish were in the US in a couple of generations...
