A data point from my experience. My native language is Spanish, and in +15 years I have only at one job dealt with code in a language other than English (maybe I have been lucky). I think as a developer one quickly realizes the value of sticking with the defaults (in this case English). Like configuring your system in English to be able to google the error messages; or Excel, which changes key shortcuts based on your language (ctrl+G for Guardar, to Save; ctrl+S in English); checking documentation in English or buying books in English because they are 2-3 years earlier than the local ones. Using an US keyboard configuration also makes it much easier to type certain common characters in programming, although that might be too much to ask for :)
