Agreed.

Would the following be sufficient?

Properties with different LANGUAGE parameters that represent the same 
data...
   - ...count as 1 toward cardinality.
   - ...have the same PID value if the PID parameter is used.


Therefore, since BIRTH has cardinality (0,1), this would be legal:

BIRTH;LANGUAGE=fr:Ville de Québec
BIRTH;LANGUAGE=en:Quebec City

while these three would not:

BIRTH;PID=1;LANGUAGE=fr:Ville de Québec
BIRTH;PID=1;LANGUAGE=en:Quebec City

BIRTH;PID=1;LANGUAGE=fr:Ville de Québec
BIRTH;PID=2;LANGUAGE=en:Quebec City

BIRTH;LANGUAGE=fr:Ville de Québec
BIRTH:Quebec City
