esperanto is a bad IAL due to being based almost entirely on European languages

It's great as a European communal language for this reason.

As a bridge to an IAL it's significantly easier to train and maintain than the current standard of English.

That is true, but it should be branded as such, not as an international language, localized auxillary languages can be great, see Interslavic as an example
