Legal risk is different from PR risk. We shouldn't mix them.
Even in this case you'll probably get both.
It is probably going to rain tomorrow too.
And exactly how a software project (composed mainly of people that chose
tech over literature or law) and chose a license in its own language
(presumably because they didn't feel confortable with English) is going
to produce anything but a random translation? Especially if you tell
them it's not binding?
How exactly are people who choose technology over literature or law even
going to write a proper license in their own language? If you want good
licenses in any language you need to talk to a lawyer. So that's the
process they need to follow.
