The error messages have always been terse and tweaking them now would cause
more trouble than is justified.
What would be good would be a wiki page that listed all the error messages
along with examples, explanations, and gotchas.

I recently spent some time puzzling over a syntax error in an "obviously"
correct phrase. It took some time to recognize that the error lay in
attempting Global assignment to a Local variable.
It's not only for newcomers that it would be helpful to have that
discrepancy reported specifically as a Localization error. I suppose that
there may also be some conditions meriting a Locale error, dealing with
mis-specification or mis-application of locale, a mostly invisible aspect
of execution.
