Thanks, Alex. The reason why I asked Jon is because I have witnessed him
make some comments on this matter several times. And of course, you also
have much more experience. ;-)

And it seems that I haven't quite figured out how to handle this
identifier in different situations for our translation.

I also asked this question on another topic. The original English text
at that time did not have this identifier, but the Chinese translation
added it:

| Thanks.

Also, I need to take a closer look at the description of this
identifier.

Ultimately, however, I agree that our top principle should be to
maintain consistency with the original text.

Thanks!
