>What would go wrong if Uber India only handled one timezone and didn't really support French? People travel. That aside, you'd have 100+ different deployments that need to be independently updated, debugged, managed, etc. That takes people and effort and is still going to cause issues. For example, each country speaking French might have a different deployment so updating language files needs to take into account every single version running live.
