It’s weird to me. As long as the people speaking to each other understand each other that’s what should matter. We shouldn’t limit folks.
I once was in a meeting and was told they’ll speak Polish instead of English since I was the only non Polish speaker.
I no longer had to attend that daily meeting so that was nice.
Another time I was forwarded an email at work. I opened it but couldn’t understand the thread. The two people in the thread were speaking Portuguese and forgot that I didn’t.
They then happily translated and we had a good laugh about it.
The only time it’s uncomfortable for me is if people are talking about me, but like I have no reason to think they’re doing that so no problem.
