That is the wrong question. The question is: Should they be? :-)

And the answer is: no, they should not/it doesn't make sense to translate them.

They were incorrectly flagged as being translatable with
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=60933220b2b6daa4b6acb177e4639c14519f459b

While other strings (the ones in the …_ENGLISH blocks) have been fixed
already, it is a little different with those, as those are
not-meant-to-be translated strings in a block that primarily has
translatable items.

https://github.com/LibreOffice/core/commit/60933220b2b6daa4b6acb177e4639c14519f459b#diff-31b4fcd4fe0f999d26172d4f1a17db39L2229

I don't know whether there is an easy way to fix that in the itemlist
method without splitting that out to a different block and adjust
everything else accordingly..

should have been (it is run on all languages), might be that I
accidentally skipped it when splitting up the full thing into the
chunks that are accepted by the mailinglist (all in one mail would bee
too large)
Could also be a bug in the processing, as you see the duplcation, it
might be the case..

Nope, not in this case.
pt-BR (and pt) had Citação for the STR_POOLCOLL_TOX_CITATION string
and STR_POOLCHR_HTML_CITATION, but pool*CHR* doesn't conflict with
pool*COLL*, so in this case no issue.

(STR_POOLCOLL_HTML_BLOCKQUOTE string was Citações and thus different).

might be that other problems exist in pt/pt-BR, but this specific one was fine.

It is run for all langs, but as written above I might have
accidentally removed results when preparing the split list

FYI: that is an old string though ( https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/8473/ )

I guess it conflicts with the HTML_BLOCKQUOTE one (thats also old).

In this case, pocheck might be too careful to avoid duplicates, as
AFAICT the TOX strings are just additional labels/defaults as to what
paragraph templates will be considered when assembling an index – but
didn't look into that in more detail. (FYI: the Blockquote paragraph
style label is "Quotations")
