Curious---why is that? inherent conservative German nature, or legal
issues?

By the way, I used Google Translate for a number of technical pages in
Chinese/Japanese and I was impressed how useful and understandable they
were, compared to my low expectations. Perhaps they are so good because
that's where Google spends their efforts, or maybe 'to-English' translation
is easier.

Google translation apparently is based on statistic algorithms rather than
on language comprehension---they have a body of known-good translations and
base new ones on piecewise matches, or something like that. That would
explain why quality depends on a particular from-to pair.
