First of all: I am German and actively decided to play on the English server instead. Why? Because quite frankly I do not like the usual playing style of Germans, nor German communication for what it matters.
Now that I am done with the subjective reasoning, I have a question regarding your argument:
If you are not going to talk to those who got merged because you do not understand their language and vice versa, then how does that help you find teams easier? Do you really fancy teaming with people you cannot even communicate with? If so, I dare saying that you're a minority. I even struggle to properly plan things with people who understand me just fine :P
Additionally, pure player counts is not what matters. If I start playing an MMO and notice that half of the population is brabbling in a language I don't understand at all, it is rather repellent, because I won't feel "at home" and I'd already look forward to the trouble of filtering out the people I can team with.
