Also some of us don't even like to have the software localized. English is not my mother tongue and it's not an official language where I live either but I always set the system language to American English on my computers and devices.

Same here, I couldn't care less about a German translation. I'm not going to see it if it's not the only language the app comes with.

I do however prefer a German locale as in number, time, units, etc.

Localization != translation. Especially when it's a machine vision app that's supposed to be useful locally.

You are right. Internationalization might be the word for what I'm talking about, though some might argue that that's not correct either because they might say that l10n is a subset of i18n. Not quite sure. But anyways, yes, l10n in the sense that it works in my part of the world is desirable. I18n if only taken to mean translation (and things like right-to-left and such which arise from supporting certain languages) is what doesn't matter to me.
