Totally wrong. Your implied solution is to just have every single developer, everywhere, to be a linguistics expert and to handle the myriad of international cases for basically everything. This is totally the wrong approach. Language is shifty, but there are definitely a series of tools that should be integrated into every 'String' that can facilitate most problems. "That doesn't mean anything" This is false. It absolutely means something, you can't brush it aside by inventing a separate series of specific measurements. Should we have those other measurements - yes, in many cases, we probably should have them as well -> that's the whole point.
