When translating auto-populated string values, we want to add support for returning either {{singular}} or {{plural}} instead of %s for placeholders. PHP won't throw a fit if no %s placeholder is returned, with the replacement value still provided. It would if the replacement value wasn't provided.
So in our javascript, we need to amend the section linked below, to first check for {{singular}} or {{plural}} first and if either of those exist, replace appropriately OTHERWISE just use what we have now with checking the if ( 'plural' === plurality ) { etc.
Make sure the description/helper text reflects the availability for these placeholders.
