By "minimum" do you mean that they are someone else's problem ?

There are economics at play here. Adding a language simplifies the work of some and make more work for others. Obviously "some" see mostly benefits and "others" see mostly drawbacks. You're just creating an externality[1].

So rather than shifting workloads to someone else or pretending there is no problem, let's take the time to calmly measure the cost, see what resources we have lined up to address that cost, and make a decision from there.
