this has been a thing for like five years, on sites as big as e.g. Youtube. do they not see it as a bug, somehow? or is it just way harder to fix than one would think for complicated computery reasons?

They probably don't perform the translation until the user requests it. Automatically translating every comment to every language to check if it changes would be a lot of additional computation

why would they care about a bug that doesn't prevent people from watching ads?
