God clearly states that nothing would be beyond our reach and capability if we had but a single language. And much like the later story of him being unable to win a battle because of the enemy having iron chariots, the explanations given by believers tend to be amusingly ad hoc and in excess of what the text actually says.
It's called making shit up as they go along. Some are very good at it but it remains shit.
