Isn't this a (software?) engineer/developer problem?

I agree developers may use "failure" or just boolean predicates ("That statement is false!") in a very exact way that may be perceived rude.

But I believe that issue is orthogonal to the directness of the Dutch. Still, beware Dutch developers until we sorted this out ;-)
