Comment (by erikr):

 Conceptually, I agree with Claude, but I am wondering where this will end.
 We throw many exceptions that use English strings as well, should those be
 translated too? I'm concerned there would be much extra to translate,
 which not everyone will find as valuable as end user facing strings. If
 only parts are translated, that may lead to an inconsistent experience for
 users.

 So, whereas I can see how a translated welcome page is friendlier and I do
 value consistency, I am a little concerned about the consequences of going
 all or nothing. With that in mind, perhaps we should allow the
 inconsistency here: the welcome page translated, because it is really the
 first experience new developers have, but other items not translated, to
 keep the translation burden manageable. I don't feel strongly though.
