Is there a way to override or 'overtake' a Core-layer text translation (like a Navigator entry's name) entirely from the Customization layer, without directly editing the Core .trs translation file and risking future Core updates?

Answer

No — there's no override/overtake mechanism for translations the way there is for some other object types; a Core-layer translation can't be cleanly superseded purely from the Customization layer. The established practice instead is to change the translation directly (yes, in the Core layer's Text Translations screen) and export the affected .trs file as part of your customization work — when a subsequent Core update is later merged, the standard harvest/merge process prompts whether to keep your custom translation or take the incoming Core translation for that specific entry, rather than silently overwriting either one. This makes ongoing Core updates manageable without needing a separate override layer.
