</span>Because builds are not only performed by builders.<br>
Everyone should be able to build packages, and also reproducibly.<br>
But you can't force people to use one specific locale, because they want<br>
to see messages in their own locale/language.<br>
So build tools should produce the same artefacts no matter which<br>
language the current user speaks.<br>
