Replying to [comment:2 ninetyninew]:
> I wonder if there is any appetite for an additional simpler function
here which could be used instead of the standard label set to define the
post type singular and plural name as opposed to the entire label set and
then all these get populated for you - to save instances of this where
some new label for a post type maybe added later you'd already have those
populated correctly?
Unfortunately, just inserting a post type name into a generic string like
`%s updated` is not translatable, hence the need for a full array of
various labels.
A general best practice in WordPress is to avoid post type and taxonomy
names in generic strings due to i18n concerns and structural differences
in languages. For reference, see:
