A biomarker minted from the labs catalog stores `t("labs.catalog.<slug>")` —
the name in the language of whoever minted it — and that stored name is what
reaches the FHIR exporter as free text. The exporter matched it against an
alias table written in English and German. So an account working in French,
Spanish, Italian or Polish exported "Cholestérol total", "Glucosa en ayunas",
"Glicemia a digiuno" and "Cholesterol całkowity" as text-only concepts with no
LOINC code, on the one document whose whole purpose is being read by another
system.
The names are DERIVED from `messages/<locale>.json` now, not transcribed into
this file. Both sides of the new slug map are app-owned identities with no
language in them, which is what makes it the one edit a new locale does not
need: `locales` grows, `messages/xx.json` lands, and the analyte names it
ships resolve the same day. Transcribing four more languages would have fixed
today's six and reopened the hole at the seventh.
The hand-written aliases keep precedence. They cover what the app owns no
string for — clinical abbreviations, the ways a person shortens a name — and
they were verified one at a time over several releases. A derived name landing
on the same key is a harmless duplicate; one landing on a different key would
be a translation typo re-pointing a verified mapping at another analyte, so
the build refuses it and the guard suite asserts the refusal held.
The lookup fold now drops accents before stripping punctuation. Without it a
name carrying diacritics lost them entirely rather than reducing to its base
letters — "Cholestérol total" folded to `cholestroltotal`, and "Hämoglobin" to
`hmoglobin`. That last one means the German umlaut spellings never resolved
either: the hand-written `hamoglobin` and `nuchternglucose` aliases only ever
caught the un-umlauted typing. Every pre-existing alias is ASCII, so the fold
is a widening and what resolved before resolves to the same key.
