| Mar 8, 2018 at 12:19 | comment | added | Yates | @AC That's what git and development environments are for. It makes no sense to show something that doesn't work just because it's easier for you during development. Users are more important than your laziness.. A button to switch language shouldn't be the cause to change the header to something completely unrecognisable either. That's just bad design. | |

| Mar 8, 2018 at 10:56 | comment | added | A C | I agree with, well, pretty much everyone that it doesn't make much sense from a UX perspective to have the button. Playing devil's advocate for a minute, it may make development easier (-->faster-->cheaper) to leave the button there if it means, for example, that you won't have to redo the UI later, or come up with multiple layouts for now and for after there's a second language option. Of course, good dev practices would minimize that impact... | |
