Apologies, I was being unclear here. I was meaning to offer either
cleaning up all calls to die() in a separate patch, or fixing only the
nearby occurrence that you mentioned in the same patch. I had implicitly
assumed you had seen the other untranslated messages already but only
wanted to fix the one for the same option (ie in a nearby, "related"
path).

Will do.

I don't mind doing this, so I'll include it.

Thanks a lot for your feedback, I'll be sending v2 along shortly.
