This is the most reasonable statement I have seen from the "con" side. It is a good point. But my problem is that people are proposing to alter a very fair, consistent system, by arbitrarily modifying it because Europeans are not used to it. This distorts the beauty of the original system and, I think, it is condescending to Europeans to think that they cannot understand the system on its own and come to appreciate it for what it is.
