I'm willing to hear a case for the use of switch, but I'm not convinced of its utility based what I've seen.

http://epov.org/wd-gemet/index.php/Template_talk:user_native_speaker_level#s... Is about *(re-)designing* the Babel templates.
It is *not* intended to use the templates http://epov.org/wd-gemet/index.php/Template_talk:user_lang#step_by_step on *every* user page.
As soon as the texts are available and Bug 2777: request for a {{substall:foo}} beside {{subst:bar}} is a vailable a bot can regenerate all Babel templates.
Unfortunatelly I can not show you the 120 hour work done on Rob's previous test wiki "Dev-HEAD". In order to identify the font-family, font-size parameters for about 80 languages using scripts other then 10pt I used {{switch}} at all levels: direction font-family font-size sample-text-short sample-text-long
One could see acceptable fonts for the 80 language codes.
Onece the requirements for displaying multiscript / multilanguage text on *one* page one can start the discussion what markup is required for simple users.
