Pick Random Block not working on the translate extension.

So I am working on something.
I am trying to make it easier by making the language random when it translates.
However, instead of doing a random language, it just does only English.

Is this a bug or can I not use pick random on the translate extension?
And if it is a bug, what should I do?
But if it is not a bug, what is a work around?

That's not how it works. If you just do

translate [] to (pick random (1) to (10)) :: extension reporter

it would try translating the text to the language that is a random number between 1 and 10, which does not exist.
Instead you should make a list with every language and then use the item of list block:

translate [] to (item (pick random (1) to (length of [languages v])) of [languages v]) :: extension reporter

Couldn't you just select the random option for the languages list?
