it *does* solve a huge problem: i have to use degenerate french, with
orthographic mistakes, or select in a small subset of words to use
only ascii. I'm limited in my expression, and I ressent this
everyday!

This is true, even if commercial french programmers don't object
the pep because they have to use english in their own work. This
is something i really cannot understand.

it's a problem of everyday, for million people!

and yes sometimes i publish code (rarely), even if it uses french
identifiers, because someone looking after a real solution *does*
prefer an existing solution than nothing.
