> Would it be better than trying to set up a call and discuss things, try to find some compromise

Are you serious? First, make a decision without consulting anyone, foist it on people that don't want it, then 'try to find a compromise'? If you care about people, you consult them before you make a decision, not after they've been burnt by it.

How do you know they didn't consult anyone?

There many, many translating teams. When they designed this, it would be normal to consult with some of them. Not every single one. Maybe they sent some plans to every team and many of the teams never read them. Maybe the plans were hard to understand.

People aren't perfect. Setting up a call to discuss things is how you start to fix things.
