Deutsch matters only if the evidence supports a paid workflow around keeping translated content, language routing, and localized site operations complete, not a list of isolated fixes. The current commercial thesis is: Multilingual WordPress sites lose trust when translated content, URLs, metadata, or language-specific workflows drift out of sync. The entry wedge is to detect missing translations, broken language routes, and incomplete localized content before visitors or clients find them.

Risks
The evidence may still describe small fixes unless users pay for the broader workflow.

Some support complaints may reflect user setup rather than a commercial product gap
The thesis should be validated against competitor pricing pages and buyer interviews before build commitment.
