Hoi,
It is a policy reasonably to comply with when you are aware of this other
source in the English language. This is definetly not a given and it cannot
be expected. So imho it is a policy based on wishful thinking, not really
practical.
Thanks,

That section on WP:V is very bad, that actually

This is not true. WP:V says that it prefers sources in English only if
a source in other language is saying the same thing as a source in
English, as well as translation in English is preferred option then
original paper in other language. This is completely reasonable
policy.
