Sure, someone can be the most helpful person in the world, but if they tell me a detailed outline of their base, movements and so on, but tell me in, say, French, or another language, i'm not going to understand a word of it, essentially, teamplay falls apart because of a language barrier.
A way around this barrier, which you feel is wrong, is to enforce a strict one-language policy so that teammates can communicate with each other and the game is as successful as possible. This is important just as an alien, or a standard marine, but as a commander it is absolutely paramount that they can communicate with their team, and if they don't speak the same language, the game is doomed.
In short, enforcing single-language policies on servers is a VERY VALID idea, i know for a fact there's a number of English, Spanish, German, etc etc, speaking servers out there, go and play and speak with people that you can fully communicate with and not end up having a bad game because nobody understands each other. It's a necessary evil so players can have better games.
