Default Language Settings doesnt work correctly for other language modules except for English
@LeonidS @Alex T⚜️ Kindly look into this.
Selected language mod seems to work only in studio on new default selection change but not in frontend for users (including new users and first time browsers on site). Also in addition:
1. When admin clears browser cache, it resets back to English text meanwhile the default language in settings shows the selected language.
2. When disabled English module, it forced to available installed module (which is normal) but when activate back the english mod, it overrides any activated language mod and set back to English.

Thanks @Stephen-Mystic Inam from brining this on.

It detects language from the browser language, if browser language is English then it will first use this language if it's available, so user will see the site in their preferred language. If all other ways of selecting language failed then default language is used.

This implies that the browser language settings will always override the site default language. If this is the case and language will always be detected from browser settings (which is always set by browsers), then what's the use of having and setting the site default language if it will never be used in real-time preference. I find this redundant and mis-leading for site operators who actually think the site default language settings actually works and counts for their community.

If all other ways of selecting language failed then default language is used - this is what it's for.

Agree. conusing/misleading. Will be nice to add some clarification so It saves people time to figure this out, liken in my case.
