It is impossible to write Python in a native language other than English
even with the implementation of this PEP. All you get is a weird mixture
of English identifiers from various libraries and identifiers in your
native language. And even if you consider that more clear and readable
than English-only Python code, the fact that it discourages code sharing
remains.
