What are you talking about? That must be some super niche use case, cause most IDEs do not do that. And if they do it's exclusively used by people who can't really program.

Lots of the industrial programming languages are very different to "normal"/"proper" programming languages, and I can see them being localised.

For example, this is (PLC programming language) Ladder Logic code:

The language is entirely in English. Only the comments and values are in Portuguese.

Since ladder is mostly diagram-based it almost doesn’t need to be localized and isn’t jarring when you use non-English variable and function names with English keywords.

Apart from being strictly left-to-right.

If you think it's jarring to mix names from different languages with English keywords... well, I have bad news for you.
