> While it may kinda be true for experienced developers, don't forget that
most of people writing code for their WordPress site are not experienced
developers nor agencies: they are are mostly people writing code just
because they are curious about how to put together their own personal
website by themselves.
> Sending error messages in their own language is something truly useful.
I wholeheartedly agree with this. When I started working with WordPress,
translated error messages were very helpful for me as a non-native
speaker. From very early on, WordPress has been available in many
languages. It's part of its success and well aligned with its mission to
democratize publishing.
In my opinion, not translating error messages does not align with this
mission as it will actually cause more difficulties for some people.
