The request is to not have all at the same time, and at least have the l10n team informed about how that will impact them. If it has been there for years, then the changes could be spanned over several versions. The same way, we don't organize our time the same if we know that we will have a large amount of strings to review. If you tell us "ignore this file", we won't spend time to work on it. It's just about communication among groups, not to reproach anybody the work he has done and how legitimate it is, on the contrary each enhancement is welcome, but evaluating and leverage the impact on others work is also part of it.
