Thank you, that looks promising.

Until there is a solution to hide the options, I will however remove "Bitte auswählen" and just use the english Version for now. When the problem is fixed I will implement the workaround.

Please, I strongly request this feature, it shouldn't be too much work and the benefit is definitely there for everyone coming from a non-english speaking country.
