Hi,
These sound like issues that happen temporarily as the source code and
translations get updated separately and then get synced up and merged as
part of the normal workflow. If you could show specific examples, then
we can check if these are things that would go away eventually on their
own or if there are genuine gaps in the tooling and verification. Thanks.
