It is a general statement that does not need another sentence for context. It does not start with a conjunction or use pronouns. It sets the stage for the discussion about language. Why other lines are not chosen? Paragraph 2 starts with 'However,' which is a conjunction. Paragraph 3 uses 'This,' which is a pronoun that refers to something earlier. Paragraph 4 also starts with 'However,' making it not independent.
