Comment (by netweb):

 To also add that if any of those fields are translated the translator will
 see a warning noting that the strings are sufficiently different, they
 also have to acknowledge that warning.

 I couldn't find an exact match of a case where a translator had wrongly
 translated these of a plugin to cause one of these warnings, so that's a
 good thing, and as these warnings are logged in the #polyglots-warnings
 channel on Slack there is kind of a way to track these warnings, but John
 you've got more than a few plugins so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
