Makes sense. I was asking because the links were talking about the English language. But considering that this is the working language, it doesn’t really matter in the end if the person is a native speaker or not. If they can’t hold a basic conversation or read simple instructions, it makes their life harder no matter what.
Do you know what the proportion of native English speakers vs non-native speakers is in the US?
It doesn’t diminish your point, but probably that non-native speakers skew the stats a bit if they are included in the stat.
