Since you're probably still fully convinced that I'm wrong, please find attached a small English-French proof-of-concept dictionary with four entries and inflections.
It'll find the singular and plural forms of
mouse and
louse and the conjugated verb forms of
bring and
catch. The .babylon source file is included.

No I don't, since I've successfully created several StarDict dictionaries with inflections myself. BTW, StarDict was designed in part as a Babylon clone and supports many of its features, including inflections. However, you're correct in that it doesn't employ linguistic compression, which is used by Kindle dictionaries.
