from the subject of "The focus on language, Speech, and Communication Development in Young
Children" rather than assigning both to the same area?

Communication Development in Young Children. D: The first concern fits Communication: Presentation
Skills, so assigning both to Language, Speech, and Communication Development in Young Children
loses the distinction.
