It's an interesting visualization for sure, but I don't really know what I can take away from it. Is it useful for something?

You can look at this as how small sets of a primitive lexicon give rise to a larger, more complex language. At least that's how I interpret it.

Very neat. What software is being used to construct/display the graph?

Glad you like it. NetworkX for creating the graph and the layout; then SigmaJS for displaying it.
