There's going to be support issues, ongoing development and maintenance. Any non-trivial functionality is not finished once it landed initially.Can we make this work smoothly, but without annoying or confusing users who don't need the functionality?.How is this going to work in the UI? What's it going to look like?.The first things that come to mind, that we should consider: We will have to do it properly, and that takes time. I'm not at all against adding full multilingual support, but if we choose to do so, it will not merely be 'accepting a pull request'. I'm afraid that if we spread ourselves too thin, it will lead to half-baked solutions, and that will lead to a lot of support requests that we'll have to deal with. I want Bolt to stay focused, and I want the functionality that we do have to be done well. It's primarily a resources issue, like you mentioned. Thanks for asking that, I'll gladly elaborate on why I said 'out of scope!', without explaining exactly why.
