        What? No, it doesn’t. People in that context is singular and means population of a country, so peoples is the proper plural for two of those. There’s no superior plural that means “that plural but, like, even more of that”. Otherwise you would end up with libraries that are filled with aisles that are just filled with shelves full of theses being called theseseseses.

        Of course it can. Just the same way I can refer to a table as “fish”: by being wrong.
