Comment (by dd32):
Something that's important to note, is that these strings are often
manipulated through filters, either to remove placeholders, replace them
with something else, or otherwise modify the content.
There are also a number of emails (not the ones shown here it seems) which
are set through the network administration screens, so having these as
placeholders is probably a bit simpler.
Although the onus is on Translators, translation tooling could possibly be
a better place, for example, adding a GlotPress requirement that any
placeholdery things `###[A-Z_]+###` remain untranslated (I'm unsure if our
GlotPress instance has a custom rule for that or not).
