If you do their job it only removes the pressure off them to find smarter ways to do the translations or polish their processes. Or better cooperate with their "customers".
AFAIR, the "KDE Team"s "customers" are developers who want to build something on top of the KF libraries.
I think they have different groups of "customers", not just developers. Also end-users and distro-builders like openSUSE.
The fact that a so-called "desktop environment" falls out of the project which is apparently somewhat usable is just a side effect, but not really intentional.
Isn't KDE the short-hand for "K Desktop Environment"? Never occurred to me the desktop is just a by-product. First paragraph from kde.org: "The KDE® Community is an international technology team dedicated to creating a free and user-friendly computing experience, offering an advanced graphical desktop,..." By-product? Please...
And so nobody cares really about translations and stuff. But of course you can become active in upstream KDE and change that.
If "nobody cares" - why should I?
If you want an environment geared towards end-users, I'd suggest using one that's designed for that task, e.g. GNOME or XFCE.
