Re: Eurocentrism, incorrect unit abbreviations, and proprietary Royalist Engish (sic) terms

Joe,

As others have mentioned...

The reason that Schema.org would not want to maintain 6,500 language
versions, is the same reason that we don't have 6,500 versions of these
HTML tags

<head>
<title>
<body>

<cabeza>
<titulo>
<cuerpo>

Schema.org syntax is absorbed by Machines 1st, Humans 2nd.  Just like any
other programming language or interoperable standard for machine
consumption.

Schema.org syntax is not a formatting syntax like CSS, but instead a web
standard like HTML.  And it took us a long time to get here and even longer
to get JSON-LD propagated enough so that developers are now much more
comfortable.

Hope that helps,
-Thad
(the same guy who won't stop you or anyone from creating those 6499 other
language versions of Schema.org...go for it ! , and we'll gladly add them
into our repository !)
