Not sure why something can’t be extra work and a core feature at the same time.
Security, privacy, or accessibility are also core features for some startups but they add more work. Hell actually an accessible website is easy for Google translate to automacily translate, you might avoid doing i18n yourself completely if you have limited resources.

This person is the chair of the internationalization team at W3C, their phrasing is intentionally trying to shift the perception from "extra work" to "default work". Yes, it is more work if you ignore it but the person is trying to change that perception because inside organizations "extra work" is what you cut to make a deadline.
