Literal translations are the best but those freak non-autists out which is why some level of localization is required for a product you're selling.

"Making shit up in the spirit of the original work" is the most important part of the translator's job because a direct translation that sounds natural is very rarely possible. The problem comes when bad translators take this as an excuse to write fanfiction or insert their retarded opinions.

MTL isn't a solution either because language translation isn't a math problem and AIs are retarded when it comes to anything that requires intuitive thinking. You cannot train an AI "smart" enough to overcome the basic limitations of transcribing meaning from one language to another.
