It's an error to [try to] rename standard folders because there may exist references to their files.
That is why xdg-user-dirs does not rename nonempty folders.
But this is indeed inconvenient and there is a solution that is not.
The correct solution is to create symbolic links as explained in

In consequence, I have made the incorrect bugs duplicates of these.

   "Update standard folders" should add language links to folders, not rename them
