Hi Xi, Perhaps, when the languages are listed in alphabetical order according to English, it is easier for non-english speakers to say, oh my language Tagalog is way down at the bottom of the drop-down.
Their usage of Latin characters might not necessarily use the same order as English. I'm not definitely sure about that theory, since I'm not a linguist, just very good at English and semi good at pinyin, which doesn't order Latin characters like English does. In this new grid / two-dimensional / block format, the column deliminator breaks this natural memorization process. Hope this helps!
