The LSC has just ratified the LDraw.org Localisation Guideline.

That was exactly the question that came up in my community when I started a
discussion about this. 99% of the people who use LDraw use Bricklink. Only a
small percentage of the people who use BL also use LDraw. Consequently it
doesn't seem to make much sense to go through all the work of creating a good
translation and learning to use them if afterwards you need to re-translate
everything back into English to be able to buy the parts you lack on BL.

Note that tools like BrickStore allow you to translate LDraw -> BL using part
number mapping.
