Just because some shows did have official translations and English names it does not mean that there weren't tons and tons of shows which didn't have any English name.

Oh so now it's just some instead of lots.

And you're in a paradigm, because you were into all those deep cuts without a translated name. We've probably never heard of them, because you're into that real shit, right?

Well, some can be lots because the volume is so large. At any rate, it wasn't anywhere close to the majority. The bulk of anime did not have a translated name. Look at the old list of releases of almost any fansub group and you'll be hard pressed to find titles other than the original Japanese one.
