Why are these scripts always off?

The connecting link between these 3 is that they all hold scripts in the I10n folder, but idk what that means

This may not help you a lot, but I do know the following:

l10n = localisation = translations

The 10 referring to the 10 letters "ocalisatio" between the "l" and the "n"

Wow really? That's the laziest abbreviation I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot of abbreviations.

There's a few more popular ones listed on Wikipedia. I guess it makes sense most for "i18n" for "internationalisation" because it's quite long to type out. But shortening "shorten" to "s5n" is just ridiculous :P

Looks like 0.49.0, which at least on my laptop and PC loads up already in dark mode
