That's a valid point. However there is quite a love here in the USA to slap Gaelic mottoes on things, which goes back to the first big wave of Irish immigrants who hit our shores in the 1840s and continues to this day.
I strive to have it as correct as possible, which isn't always the case here! Many of the Gaelic mottoes one sees here are misspelt or unidiomatic or both.
Here's a recent thread about some of these absurdities

Actually the Celtic languages are all around here, but most locals are unaware of it. A local road that goes by a big mountain is called... Bryn Mawr.
