The LaTeX template features $lang$ and $babel-lang$ not to mention
$babel-otherlangs$.
What is the difference between $lang$ and $babel-lang$ and can the
latter not be set to $lang$ in the template?
What are the consequences of doing so?
Thanks.
Chandra

The variable `lang` is expected to be a BCP47 language code. However, the LaTeX package "babel" used for some language-specific conversions requires a different language description. That's what `babel-lang` contains, it's the language given in a way that's understood by that LaTeX package.
