If we were to do this because there are less than 20% Spanish speakers, Mauritania should also be removed from the map of the French language; otherwise there would be a lack of neutrality. The appropriate thing to do in these cases where the language is sufficiently relevant even if it does not reach 20% of speakers is to mark the country with a dot.

The situation is similar to Czech Rep on German maps regarding cultural presence vs Louisiana on French map (where it's official to some degree).

Nevertheless, I think there may be other options (such as the use of dots) that would help the map gain accuracy, but this requires discussion, and reaching a common consensus, which does not exist in this case. The solution is not just to turn gray the entir...

Highlighting it entirely when it's not used in administrative settings or as the secondary language is blatant misrepresentation and POV-esque. Please see discussion on proposals to accurately map PH, but do not highlight the whole country, as that is not accurate.
