The point is that these people can find and produce information that they 
otherwise couldn't.

For example, an article about http://eo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tombofosto exists 
in Esperanto, French and Serbian Wikipedia. Someone who knows Chinese and 
Esperanto, Spanish and Esperanto or Arabian and Esperanto is able to read 
it, despite the fact that the article does not exists in Chinese, Spanish or 
Arabian.
