Learning: The holidays library intentionally duplicates label strings like `estimated_label` across country modules rather than centralizing them. This duplication is the established library-wide approach and should not be suggested for refactoring.

Learning: The holidays codebase now uses the constructor signature pattern `__init__(self, *args, islamic_show_estimated: bool = True, **kwargs)` across country classes.

Learning: For National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) holidays implementation, only `estimated_label = tr("%s (estimated)")` is needed for localization support. The `observed_label` and `observed_estimated_label` are not required for this financial market holidays implementation.

Learning: In the holidays library, Islamic holiday tests use `self.no_estimated_holidays = Country(years=years, islamic_show_estimated=False)` as the library-wide standard approach to simplify test cases. This pattern is intentional and preferred over testing estimated labels.

Learning: In the holidays library, country classes with localization support consistently use `from gettext import gettext as tr` import and wrap class-level attributes like `estimated_label`, `observed_label`, and `observed_estimated_label` with `tr()` calls. This is the standard library-wide practice for l10n-enabled entities and is required for proper string extraction when generating .po files.

Learning: Countries in the holidays library that don't have localization support yet should use plain English strings for labels (e.g., `estimated_label = "%s (estimated)"`), while only countries with existing .po translation files should use `tr()` wrapping. Check for the presence of .po files in holidays/locale to determine if a country has localization support.

Learning: In the holidays library, countries with localization support consistently use tr() wrappers around holiday names when calling _add_* methods (e.g., self._add_new_years_day(tr("Holiday Name"))). This is the established pattern across United States, Thailand, and other l10n-enabled countries, contrary to any suggestion that translation is handled internally by _add_* methods.

Learning: In the holidays library, countries with localization support DO use tr() wrappers around holiday names when calling _add_* methods. This is the correct pattern for l10n-enabled country implementations, contrary to previous learning about translation being handled internally by _add_* methods.

Learning: In the holidays library, translation is performed in the `_add_holiday` methods, not at the string level. Holiday strings passed to `_add_holiday_*` methods are processed through the translation machinery within those methods, so using `tr()` or `self.tr()` wrappers is unnecessary.

Learning: For the Ethiopia holidays class, it's appropriate to add a return type hint only to the `_is_leap_year` method to match the base class implementation in `holidays/holiday_base.py`, while keeping other methods without type hints to maintain consistency with other country implementations.

Learning: In the holidays package, when adding comments for year-restricted holidays in Uganda and similar country modules, include specific legal or historical context such as the actual laws, parliamentary acts, or government decisions that established the holidays, rather than just generic "since YEAR" information. For example, reference the specific Parliament act, decree, or historical event that created the holiday.
