isn't that something that should be decided upon on a per-project basis?
I agree that it'll be bad for Linux, but each project has its own
objectives. for example, what if you're teaching a programming course
for kids? it'll be easier for them writing in their own native language.
I could easily imagine a small start-up writing in their own native
language (let's say Hebrew) as one way for obfuscating the source code,
so as to protect their IP.
there are, I'm sure, more use-cases.
