Blender Version
4.2 dev (main branch)

Short description of error
Blender is using po files for translations located here:
https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/src/branch/main/locale/po

Inside these files there are translations marked as fuzzy, which should not be used, e.g:

#. :src: bpy.types.AttributeGroup.active_index
#, fuzzy
msgid "Active Attribute Index"
msgstr "Some automatic translation"

Unfortunately Blender is using fuzzy translations.
It is really bad, as fuzzy translations are created automatically, and must be reviewed by human.
It is causing really bad experience for Polish translation, as there are 2500 fuzzy translations, which ruin overall experience.

Please don't use fuzzy translation in Blender.

A translation marked as fuzzy doesn't necessarily mean that the mark has originated from Blender, this only means that

the translation has failed the automatic checks for conflicts and other checks by Weblate
the translation has been marked Needs Editing in the Weblate as seen below

or as seen below in the Poedit marked as Needs work

The only way to fix it is by going through the translations and fixing the conflicts or unchecking needs editing.
