The Bug:
Minecraft Launcher strings used for the UpsellPDP GameIntroduction are missing a colon for the respective game names in "Minecraft Java & Bedrock Edition Base Game" and "Minecraft Java and Bedrock Editions", making them inconsistent with the intended spelling of "Minecraft: Java & Bedrock Edition"; refer to https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/store/minecraft-java-bedrock-edition-pc, for example.
Below is a table I've constructed that highlights this error. You can find information about what the current and expected string is and would be, some context regarding it, and a link to the appropriate string on Crowdin.
