Say I have:gettext("%s: unknown variable at line %s") Then I want to change the text to: gettext("%s: not yet known variable at line %s") I have to find all places where this text is used in the code. Then I also need to updated the translations. If I used a key instead I only need to update all the translations. I don't need to change my code.
Also, with the key approach I can just send a separate file to someone else to do the translation, even the English translation. Sure I probably could have a separate file for the English translation as well but that would be duplicating the string.
