 Using a lot of the translation functions generates an error using the
 WordPress Coding Standards under PHPCS such as:

  Expected next thing to be an escaping function (see Codex for 'Data
 Validation'), not '_nx'

 Certain functions like _x(), _e(), __() all have equivalent esc_html
 functions. But there are no esc_html equivalent for these other functions.

 Granted one could simply wrap the statements in esc_html(), for the sake
 of consistency and standardization for theme developers, I feel that
 esc_html versions of these functions should be created.
