Why do "loose" nibs take precedence over nibs in .lproj?

Why do "loose" nibs take precedence over nibs in .lproj?

I have the following directory structure in my package:

Contents
    MacOS
    Resources
       MainMenu.nib
       English.lproj
           MainMenu.nib

You see, there are two MainMenu.nib.

(This happened because the original release of my app was not localized and
had the "loose" MainMenu.nib at the higher level.  Later, I released a
localized version with a new MainMenu.nib in English.lproj, but Installer
does not delete depracated files when doing an "Upgrade".  (That will be the
subject of another thread.))

Anyhow, when this application runs, it uses the old MainMenu.nib instead of
the latest one, causing much pain.

Of course, everyone has "English" somewhere in the Languages list of their
System Preferences > International, so I believe that the MacOS should, by
design, use the one in English.lproj.

Is there a good reason why it does not, or should I file a bug report?
