Tangential rant: Anything that tries to second-guess what user meant is doomed for failure in some (not even so obscure) cases

I prefer all my UI in English, because it's easier to navigate settings. But i also hate when google tries to be smart and (poorly) auto translates the reviews in Maps from one of the languages I fluently speak, to English. I didn't find any way to separate those settings.

Also, i believe, Libre Office tries to deduce the monetary units from OS settings, and forces me to changes dollars to euros.

Just ask me what i want!
