> would you complain

I'm not complaining that programming languages use words based on English; my point is about English speakers having bikeshedding quibbles about those words that don't mean anything to non-English-speakers.

Suppose some Italian, due to some Italian reasons, doesn't like something about the music term dal segno or any other term. Why would I care, know what I mean.

Hmm... if you didn't care, why would you be reading the Italian quibble on a history site written in Italian?

I mean, this was quite clearly a page about the history of the terms, right?
