Doesn't LC_ALL=C setting override LANG or LANGUAGE settings?
Sorry, my bad. Of course
LC_ALL=C.UTF-8; LANGUAGE=; export LC_ALL LANGUAGE
and LC_ALL=C override the LANG setting when used inline of the command.
LC_ALL does not override LANGUAGE. Try e.g.
LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=it aptitude why firefox-esr
here seems to override, tested twice with "it" and "it_IT.UTF-8":
~# env LC_ALL=C LANGUAGE=it script -T ~/test.time -a ~/test.script
Script started, output log file is '/root/test.script', timing file is
'/root/test.time'.

and with "export LANGUAGE=it" defined in .bashrc LC_ALL=C override the same:
root@itek:~# env LC_ALL=C script -T ~/test.time -a ~/test.script
Script started, output log file is '/root/test.script', timing file is
'/root/test.time'.

Try to add "export LC_ALL=it_IT.UTF-8" to .bashrc and e.g."date" in the
script session.
Yes, the messages are localized to it_IT.UTF-8 into the "script"
session, however users that have set LC_ALL variable into .bashrc I
suppose already know what are they doing.
