For plurals in Dutch it's only correct if the pronunciation of the letter before the s would change, I believe, whereas English just changes the spelling. So in Dutch it's baby's, in English babies, but both say computers. But yeah, I think it's just compensation because people have memorised that English uses more apostrophes than Dutch. I can tell the time in Dutch, but having to switch between British and American English makes that I indeed have no idea which interpretation of half two is correct when. I just make sure to say half past two.
