Can you please change `helpers.check_prototype_translations()` to return a boolean? Or an integer with the number of errors. I'm calling it as part of Angel's unit tests. I currently have no way of making the test fail if untranslated strings are detected!

With the update to 2.0, we have a lot of recipes missing locale as recipes no longer inherit the name of their `main_product` unless the recipe and item/fluid have the same name.

As far as I'm aware this is not possible because the result is not deterministic because it depends on the current locale.

What about if the function accepted a language?

The game doesn't load anything besides the current locale.

Though IDK if this was changed in 2.0, but identity is not guaranteed for locale, unlike the rest of the mod files. It's ignored when computing mod checksum and such.
