It depends on the aim of the community. If it is to discuss the language, advancements, tips, etc. Then restricting talk of other languages makes sense. Otherwise the subreddit can become just talk of replacement languages.

Subreddits sometimes split the difference by dedicating a single day of the week where something is allowed, eg. only allowing you to post questions on Fridays, or creating threads to consolidate off-topic discussion.
