Not to mention that the average translator should not fiddle or worry
about the policies and procedures of some external entity and should
instead concentrate on the work at hand. In other words, shielding
people from the various different procedures (and sometimes associated
ugliness) and instead supplying them with a single cohesive easy to use
method should ease life for people and should make it very simple for
people to work on multiple projects in-concert.
