Sorry, that's "you wouldn't use any of the TXF tax categories"

(swiss german) program CashBook we used. Unfortunately this program was
totally broken starting with 1.1.2000.

I am looking again at the german translation and have the following questions:
de.po has 1448 entries in 1.4.10 but only 1032 in 1.5.x

I think there are a lot of unnecessary entries in 1.4.10. It would be nice to
get rid of them.

I have the feeling that everything related to the TXF-report is highly
US-specific as tax laws vary greatly from county to country (and here in
Switzerland we even have 26 cantons with different tax laws). I suggest
therefore to split country specifc entries into a different .po file.

This is correct, for the TXF export capability.  But the general tax report is still applicable, though you would use any of the TXF tax categories.
