Translation between SimCN and TraCN is broken

Well, you know, for translation between simplified Chinese and traditional Chinese, it's quite simple, people just need to replace one word's (if it has) simplified form to traditional form (or vice versa) without changing the word itself.

(Even if you want more changes, there are indeed some flavor difference about using which words to describe one thing. For example, 硬件/硬體，it means hardware, but 體's simplified form is 体，so there's a little difference on the selection of words. But at its maximum, it's still in order and in low amount.)

However the translation provided by Firefox processes this like it's a total of 2 different languages and it results in a totally different output. Moreover, the output losts almost all original logics (not literally “all” but a 25~50% can already ruin any translation), which means it's unreadable, it's not translation in any degree but a nonsense writing.

So, are you using a low quality machinery translation and by the logic SCh-En-TCh?
