Asaf, I agree with Gerard's position in relation to the purpose of the
question/answer.

May you clarify which practical implications you want to achieve with
this question?

If it's about the set of suggestions for people trying to preserve
their languages, I suggest a very cautious approach just after they
get what they want. Yes, it seems more rational to push them to make a
good bilingual dictionary, but we have to be careful not to alienate
them.

If you had in your mind something else, please let us know.
