Changes made in one dialect of one language should neither affect, nor
effect changes in other dialects of the same language, much less other
languages.

from people whose job is to adapt software interface to the proper rules
and costumes of there languages and should generally know better.

In professionally run l10n & i18n projects, a change in one dialect
won't affect any other dialects, or languages.

What happens here, is any time a change is made for what is construed as
en_US, _every_ project has to recheck their entire translation, even if
the only change was presentation markup.
