3. In general, it is enough to distinguish between Chinese Simplified Chinese 
and Chinese Traditional.

Chinese has a large number of Chinese characters, therefore the fonts produced 
are generally divided into Chinese Simplified and Chinese Traditional. This 
causes Chinese Simplified Chinese fonts to fail to display Chinese Traditional. 

In addition to the differences in fonts, Chinese mainland, Taiwan(china), Hong 
Kong(china), etc. use different punctuation marks, expressions, etc. For 
example, Chinese mainland mainly uses "", while Taiwan may use 「」 more often. 
and the difference between the two Chinese expressions, such as when using 
labeltext.

While it's great to set up new languages at the system level, there is always 
the possibility that new languages will be added for one reason or another. 

As far as Chinese is concerned, it has a very large number of dialects. We 
can't be fully integrated into the system. Opening up suitable interfaces to 
add new languages can reduce the cost of system maintenance. 

As far as I know, the characters used (Chinese Simplified, Chinese 
Traditional), the punctuation marks used (Chinese mainland, Taiwan, Hong Kong), 
and the expressions used (Chinese mainland, Taiwan, Hong Kong) are basically 
different between the dialects of Chinese. There is no hyphenation difference 
in any dialect. 

As far as I am currently using, the context is not very well set for 
localization, and there are many words in lang-txt.lua that have not been 
translated into Chinese. I think that as an ordinary user, it is very dangerous 
to modify information at the system level.

Although, as a temporary alternative, we can use 'newif' or 'startmode' to add 
a new condition to accommodate both Chinese Simplified and Chinese Traditional 
in the same document. However, it would be nice to have support at the system 
level.

I don't know if I'm getting my point right. Because of the above, I used 
translation software to translate my thoughts.
