OK, so why not just: #+latex_header: % NOLANG ? I think this has in its favor: a) it is simple and obvious to remember; b) it's a single string, and of course c) it's valid LaTeX code. And it can be easily controlled from org-latex-guess-babel/polyglossia-language with a conditional. Anyway, whatever the choice, I would vote for Org not to load babel or polyglossia by default, and for the default option of the custom variable that handles that globally to be nil. For example, I'm in the group of users that load babel using an external preamble (a .tex or a .sty file or a 'latex-class'), and frankly I don't want to have to add a new line to all my documents to prevent Org from reloading babel for me and return an error on the compilation.
