Yes, they are not equal. But, database and scripting language has one
thing in common - they both throw errors into any possible user on the
earth. For this, we can even compare operating systems and hotmail
footers. Fact is fact - when you make a product for the world's usage,
you need to support world's different languages. PHP already does it
very, very well with the documentation. I don't see why to argue so much
whether to help these non-english speakers and gain more usage for PHP or
not.
