Description

The current explanation is very specific to dates and numbers. As Globalize becomes a broader i18n library, we should improve this section.

Ref: section 4.1 of http://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-402/1.0/ECMA-402.pdf

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review the current 'Why globalization?' section in the documentation, read the referenced ECMA 402 section 4.1, and propose a broader explanation that covers internationalization beyond dates and numbers.
