That would be just as true for a project in any other language but standard
English. What you're saying is that Meta isn't perfect - which is true. Do
you have a better alternative?

The question of how such a discussion would be closed is what concerns me
the most - I can't see allowing a meta bureaucrat to close such a poll
(which is what we would do in en.wp), and since the Foundation would have to
make the changes anyway... Would it be interpreted, then, by a developer?
