In a perfect world (yeah, I know...) we should be able to run Ubuntu
systems with language-pack-en as we wouldn't have any hardcoded
en_US.UTF-8 but instead use C.UTF-8.
That'd let us save some space on some images (think of any localized
image), on the actual target systems and on updates (langpacks are big).
In any case, C.UTF-8 is usually vastly better than just C, so I'm all
for having that change done.
