Thank you for mentioning Japanese. I totally agree with you. Readability counts, not writability. I am not good at English. I can not live in English world. I don't understand many proverbs and idioms. I may not be able to buy even food! But I can read technical documents like RFC. English used in RFC is very clear to me. I don't know English in RFC is S&W English or not. But I believe English used in RFC is very inclusive for the engineers in the world. I don't think I can write such clear English without help. But having such a goal is inclusive for non native English readers.
