I would have thought that the solution here is to remove the python3 setup.py install but keep pip3 install -e .?! After all the compilation of the babel translation-files is not necessary for a dev-env, imho?!

Yes it turns out that keeping pip3 install -e . without python3 setup.py install also works repeatedly (I didn't realize that). I would prefer however build instructions that include babel compilation. What if someone tests translation issues?

Plus one for pip3 install -e . - works much more reliably. @relativisticelectron if you find someone who tests translation issues I will personally guide this person through his dev setup ;-)
