There must be some confusion here, because this translation is for coreutils
8.31 and later.

That's because the behavior of coreutils changed in 8.31. The translation string
you're talking about was introduced in coreutils 8.31, so I'm puzzled as to why
it'd be used with coreutils 8.30.
Here's the behavior change in 8.31:

and here's the closely-related documentation change in 8.31:
