How sure are we that Talossan actually landed in ISO-639 as tzl?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talossa
I do not dispute that Klingon is actually in there as tlh, but I have
not come across Talossan before and I spend a fair amount of time
looking at the ISO639 PO files.
Maybe they can use something from the range
#. Name for qaa-qtz
msgid "Reserved for local use"
msgstr ""
If it is supported in localedef.
My concern is not the frivolous nature of the language, but that they
might be attempting to "squat" in protected namespace.
