Follow-up to the CWS re-submission prep. Decision: single English CWS listing.

Why

The CWS default (English) listing is shown to every user regardless of browser language; localized listings only show to users whose Chrome is set to that locale. Hand-maintaining three parallel free-form markdown copies (EN/ko/ja) was the source of the 17/18 course-count drift fixed in #158, for marginal per-market gain. The extension UI stays localized in 11 languages — only the store metadata is English-only now.

Changes

  • Delete store-assets/STORE_LISTING-ko.md and STORE_LISTING-ja.md.
  • STORE_LISTING.md — reframed from the "certificate / Korea-first" POSITIONING lock to broad global appeal + engineering craft:
    • Summary 135 → 130 chars (was over the 132 CWS limit), reworded.
    • Description lead rewritten: "32 languages / your language" instead of non-English-learner-certificate framing; leads with curated terminology + background LLM verification + in-page tutor.
    • Header / What's New → v3.5.39; removed the localized-listing pointers.
  • RELEASE_CHECKLIST.md — replace the Korean/Japanese paste rows with an "English only" locale row.
  • TODO.md — drop the two multilingual-listing items (now English-only by decision).

Verify

  • Summary = 130 chars (≤132)
  • No dangling STORE_LISTING-ko/ja references anywhere in the repo
  • format:check clean (markdown outside prettier scope)
  • Docs-only; no code touched

Drop the hand-maintained ko/ja localized listings — every CWS locale falls back
to the English default, and keeping three parallel free-form copies in sync was
the source of the 17/18 course-count drift (#158) for marginal per-market gain.
The extension UI stays localized in 11 languages; only the store metadata is now
English-only.

Reframe the EN listing away from the "certificate / Korea-first" POSITIONING lock
toward broad global appeal + engineering craft:
- Summary trimmed 135 -> 130 chars (was over the 132 limit) and reworded.
- Description lead rewritten: 32 languages / "your language" instead of
  non-English-learner-certificate framing; leads with the curated-terminology +
  background-LLM-verification + in-page-tutor craft.
- Header/What's-New bumped to v3.5.39.

Clean up references in RELEASE_CHECKLIST (locale row) and TODO (drop the
multilingual-listing items).
