Everyone group in category permissions in non-English forums

I accidentally switched the default locale of my forum to English for a longer time span, so the default groups were renamed and discovered some features related to category permissions and the “everyone” group.



The first difference I noticed was the banner at the bottom.
Then I noticed that while the German “jeder” links to /g/jeder (which doesn’t work, because there is no such group), the English “everyone” isn’t a link.
And third, I learned that when you add another group like “moderators” in English, all permissions are added by default and you are not allowed to remove them, while “everyone” is allowed to do it. In German, this additional help does not work; you can easily remove permissions even though “everyone” is allowed.

The staff action logs are also a little confusing, because it looks like I changed the group, but I did not; I have only clicked “save”, and then the log shows the “everyone” group in two languages:
