Phase 34 Plan 08: German Translation Gap Closure Summary
One-liner: Added 58 missing German translation keys across 5 de/*.json locale files to achieve full key parity with English, fixing fallback display for home, profile, threads, setups, and collection sections.
Objective
Close the German translation gap identified in VERIFICATION.md — plans 34-06/34-07 wired useTranslation into routes and fixed umlaut encoding, but never added corresponding German translations for the new English keys.

Deviations from Plan
Auto-fixed Issues
1. [Rule 1 - Bug] Fixed JSON syntax error from smart quotes in dangerZoneDescription
Found during: Task 1 — test run revealed SyntaxError: JSON Parse error: Expected '}'
Issue: The German translation for dangerZoneDescription used German-style curly double-quotes „Gelöschter Benutzer" — the closing " (U+201C) was parsed by the JSON parser as the string-closing delimiter, causing a syntax error at line 115
Fix: Replaced curly quotes with straight single quotes: 'Gelöschter Benutzer'
