If comment 16 is correct then no, it won't be a setback.

That's a good surprise that such string changes can be considered to backport.
However the setback considerably more and this time significant for any
language that makes a significant effort to get a 22.05.00 close to 100%
translated, close to all of the long complex strings to retranslate for 22.05
would have been translated for nothing. While in the next days only a fraction
of it would be done and lost.

In the end it only matter for languages close to 100% on previous release and
whose team have enough workforce to have any significant work done in the first
days of the freeze (the only teams to loose work now albeit it's not
significant IIUC) and that can hope for a close to 100% 22.05.00 (the only
teams to loose something significant if we wait for 22.05.01 window)

Most languages have more strings to worry about than those changed for 22.05
and most with a high completion percentage still don't translate fast enough
now and in the coming few weeks to be impacted by whether this patch is merged
around now or for .01.

So very happy to see that for this patch to make it for 22.05.x the possibility
would be open for .01 but that doesn't look best for translating team (the most
involved ones) compared to .00

> Btw, we should announye string freeze properly on koha-translate etc.!

Indeed!
