The U.S. market is huge, so this line of inquiry is irrelevant.

Face it, Arabic themery is DOA.

Similarly, in Python-land we didn't pursue realistic snakes because of
all the Christians in the world.  That is, directly or indirecty, why
most people fear 'em.  Indians don't have problems with snakes, they
rather like 'em, but that's only relevant in India.  If you're going to
take over the world, you have to think globally.
