Is it possible to switch theme language, keep exist translation instead of reset content?

Currently store admin can change default language for online store.

The change will remove all existing translation of target language, then current content will be used as base theme of target language. The store owner needs to translate and modify all content via theme customization WEB UI.

Not only this, but also need to translate and update all content of all products.

I suggest a more efficient method, when a store admin change default language, the system just switch to exist translation. Then all translated contents can be immediately became default language. It can save time for store admin.

I’d like to up vote this (if that even works) by supporting this. The current system doesn’t make much sense to me. Would love this to be set up to allow a simple switch of the default.
