Yes, and we need that extra magic why exactly?

I can imagine we want it for lsr snippets, but for .ly in the docs,
isn't it much easier for translators to just translate .ly inline?
It seems all translators do that anyway.  However, we still
get all those entries in the po files.

I suggest not to parse any .*texi *.*tely documentation
for po usage.

It seems translators don't use that and it still works.
