These aren't orthogonal: we can have the manual in English _and_ in
other languages.  (In fact, we want to; it's just that no one has yet
volunteered to do the humongously monumental job of translating the
manual into any other language, and then maintain the translation over
the years.)

Exaggeration is a mother of many failures to agree on common goals.
So is over-generalization.
