I've noticed this dictionary has a distinct lack of badwuds. What's going on with that?

After you eat three rose apple you never want to see another one as long as you live. Dem cliding.

The need for a governing language body isn't at issue. What's at issue is their recommendations. Jamaican patois is heavily rooted in English. I understand linguists like to invent things, however from a practical standpoint it's silly to completely discard the English root. It's a barrier to adoption and makes things hard to read. There is for example, no good reason to change the spelling of "identify" to "aidentifai". Nothing but obfuscation is added.

Here's another example of the the JLU's over engineering. "kuk" => "cook". How is this sensible? Every Jamaican who makes it past grade 1 can pronounce the syllable "cook". Changing the spelling to "kuk" just causes unnecessary cognitive overhead.

There is also no need to create "ii" when there are perfectly good standard English equivalents like "ee" and "ea". It's silly.

You're answering the wrong question. It's not whether languages need orthography. It's whether languages, particularly creole languages need a **unique** orthography. And you haven't made a compelling case.
