Does this sentence make sense?

The nativeness principle proves to be problematic in terms of several factors, one of which lies in its viability. Oyama (1976) shows that matured L2 learners nearly always retain an immediately identifiable accent, including some who display perfect grammar, although there are some exceptions: approximately five percent of those do not display any accent and speak like a native speaker.
Although it still remains unclear what linguistic approaches enable this minority of L2 learners to reach the proficiency level, through various studies it is feasible to construct an assumption as to the question of what group of individuals exhibit this language performance.
It has been claimed that perfection in speech patterns appears to be restricted to a very small number of highly motivated individuals (Moyer, 2004) and to those with special aptitude (Ioup, Boustagi, El Tigi, & Moselle, 1994).
