Hi @jaspercreel,
Welcome to trac!
The reason that separate strings are used is because in many languages you
can't simply substitute the noun in a sentence without changing other
parts of the sentence the way you often can in English. So, for instance,
something like this wouldn't work.
`sprintf( __( 'Add New %s' ), $label )```
