The languages I might want to see aren't necessarily the ones I know. People who are learning languages might set that (I did for the language I'm learning, anyway).

So set whatever you want to see. Am not sure what's your point. That setting tells site which of the languages you'd like to see and if they support it, it should be used. Didn't see any sites use these apart from CMS I wrote.

Maybe I misunderstood you but my point was if it interpreted the language preferences I set in the normal config as "knowing" the languages I added and didn't offer translations, that wouldn't necessarily be what I want.
