The Bug:
Several instances of "Minecraft: Java Edition" within the new launcher strings are spelled inconsistently.
Any mentioning of the java edition version of Minecraft is commonly spelled and presented as "Minecraft: Java Edition", however, this isn't always the case within the new launcher strings.
Below is a table I've constructed that highlights all of these errors. You can find information about what the current and expected strings are and would be, some context regarding them, and links to the appropriate strings on crowdin.
