I think it's stuck because no decision was made to follow this path (and it's
probably not a good approach to translate all strings in a template at once).
But the system works, and is already used in some places.
About the performance concerns, yes, it affects performances but IMO it's
negligible compared to the benefits (plural forms, context, named placeholders
instead of %s, and more if we handle all translatable strings with it). See
https://gitlab.com/jajm/time-i18n (it's not perfect, so take it with a grain of
salt - we should probably test with a real world example)
