“That’s the way we’ve always done it? That’s not a valid reason.”

Not a valid reason for what?

English is the language used throughout WordPress.org. There are Rosetta sites which are localised versions of WordPress.org. That’s where you get languages other than English. Rosettas are welcomed to include their own content, related to their local communities but some general content, such as About, Code of Conduct, Documentation etc is translated from WordPress.org, which is in English.

I don’t understand the non working status quo regarding the choice of the language here.
