Research direction

Start by comparing app/app/create/create-form.tsx with the keys already defined in lib/copy/create-form.ts, then grep the form file for quoted user-visible sentences, including toast messages and labels. Move each remaining literal into the copy file under a key that matches the existing naming, and import it from the component. Done when the grep finds no user-visible literals left in the form and the existing tests for the create form still pass.
