Comment:

 It's generally discouraged to make post type slugs translatable because
 you will constantly run into situations like this, or permalinks breaking
 because translations get updated.

 In theory, on `options-permalink.php` we could wrap the
 `flush_rewrite_rules()` call in a `switch_to_locale()` to always use the
 site language, but this alone is no guarantee that nothing else could
 break. Especially since `flush_rewrite_rules();` is called in many places
 both in core and plugins.

 So I would consider closing this as a wontfix because it's plugins
 `doing_it_wrong()`. Adding `dev-feedback` though to get more feedback.
