I am checking in another iteration, please continue your comments.

Pablo, if you want to kill the projection-type from Optimization, let me
know.  You seem to remain undecided.  Here's a thought:  isn't it fairly
easy to "edit the script" and change the projection (f) type for those
rare cases you want to try something odd?

I really have no good experience dealing with PO strings, so any ideas
you have would be helpful.  All I know is that tranlatable strings
belong in _() macros to help generate the base language version.

Well, when the work is repetitive, automate it.  If I knew just what
needed to be coordinated, I could find/write some Perl scripts for the
task.
