I think even a bad translation is better than no translation at all, but for some reason the majority of books don’t seem to get translated. Why is that?

There is no inherent value in it. A translation only makes sense if enough people will buy and read it to make it worth the effort and cost. But I do think (actually fear), we’ll soon get AI-translated e-books where you can select the language at checkout.
