Basically because there is a better alternative for translators. For
other people doing "general work", there often isn't any. If you
think there is, feel free to propose that as a separate proposal,
instead of trying to discourage this one.
I mean, how can you really see this as a valid argument against the
proposal. I have indicated real and fundamental problems with the
current approach, a new system, with real and proven advantages, and
all you say here is "I don't like to change. Furthermore, in
completely different situations, we also use NMUs". Please provide
arguments based on advantages and disadvantages of the proposed
system.
