So is that why the old IBM mainframes tagged every system message with
a unique identifier?

I think having messages appear in the sysadmin's native language has
merit. The front line for Linux support is moving away from this
list.

Once messages permeate back to this list, they can be converted back
to English just as the original message was converted originally to
the native language.
