Showing sub-branches, such as Baltic, Nuristani, and Indo-Aryan, disrupts the entire map. Users from the regions that speak these languages added these three sub-branches, but that sets a precedent for dozens of other users to add their own dozens of sub-branches. There aren't enough colors on the map for that, so it would defeat the purpose of the map.
