> Unfortunately for Drupal this does not match our implemented understanding
of the .po format, where we understood that the msgid_plural part of a
singular/plural definition is not ignored for uniqueness but rather considered
part of the source identifier (its name is msgid_... after all).
I agree that this was an unfortunate misunderstanding.
> So why are gettext tools consider the msgid as a standalone identifier
regardless of the msgid_plural alongside it then?
I guess the answer is simplicity: the msgid is the lookup key for the entry.
It would have been possible to use the pair (msgid, msgid_plural), but that
would have been more complex.
