Why does Babbel make a distinction between Western and Eastern Punjabi for its "10 Most Spoken Languages In The World" list, when even the script they use is Gurmukhi on their map. With all varieties of Punjabi, it would be at #8, beating 123 Million Japanese and 148 Million Russian Speakers

Why does Ethnologue distinguish between different dialects of Western Punjabi when it doesn't for Eastern Punjabi? All it does is decrease the overall language speakers of Punjabi in their stats.
