Comment (by slyfox):

 On my system if I pass
     LANGUAGE=something-incorrect
 it fallbacks to 'en' messages anyways.

 Looks like it's explicitely documented behaviour:

 https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/The-LANGUAGE-
 variable.html

 But I dont have strong preference over 'C'.
