I can read japanese so neither of the patches affect me personally. Maybe try not to take words for their literal meaning and instead see that I merely touched upon the fact that XX would have been a boon for many, many people (probably with less overall effort required as well). There's no harm in doing Stories. I'm just kind of shocked that he isn't even considering a menu patch for XX because of it. He cited localization as part of the reason when it hasn't even been announced yet, which seemed kind of defeatist.
Shame that I have no idea how to insert/edit dialogue into anything that isn't from before 2000, as the MH games actually have extremely basic and easy-to-understand text.
Don't police the forums, trying to find people to lecture. This lady doesn't put up with that nonsense
