I always thought that the French did this on purpose to not surrender
to the fact that the English language dominates the world.

They did this to the keyboard layout, too. If you ever tried to use a
computer in a French Internet cafe, good luck typing your password (even
your username will be a challenge to type)! ;-)

There is something worse than that: trying to program on a Mac with a french keyboard layout. Characters like \, [, ] or | require Shifp+Option modifier. They probably did not have French coders working there.
