The go translation team dictates which of these segments within a file actually get updated. I can manually revert the segments if preferred, but these changes will continue appearing for future drops with the current system. 

I can potentially try to communicate to the other team to differentiate between keywords & option names versus some of these other words, but let me know how you'd like me to proceed with this.
