Is there a reason why a US-based licensor shouldn't use an Unported license? If Unported is supposed to work, why are ported English- language licenses needed at all?

Should people who publish in English but who are based in a country whose ported CC licenses are not written in English use an Unported license?

Should international collaborative projects headquartered in the US make a policy to use an Unported license considering that the licensors are spread throughout the world?
