The escape is thorough evaluation. Ignorance can never be an escape. But
I dont see  a more thorugh evaluation happening because mostly ignorance
is the plan. You can never be sure 100% that nobody is offended - but
its the question of numbers. But the foot offends many people and would
have stand out if that would have been a consideration.

The question also is if GNOME wants to be prominent in
internationalization. If it does, it would need to take  some extra
hurdles. What you can not do is just to claim to care about
internationalization and then dont.
