Mostly related to the navigation refactor. Some minor, but the team is on top of them. @mountiny no pressure to solve all of them today as we deployed every day this week so far (and I'm focused on a problematic regression for migrate/redirection).

• Linked issue not a blocker, but I'm asking whether there really is no improvement possible: Fix - LHN - "Removed 0 user" displayed on #Admins preview when room member leaves room. #54406 (comment)
• Deploy Checklist: New Expensify 2025-02-12 #56784 being retested, isn't a blocker though
• Translate auto-reporting frequency changelogs #56188 checked off, linked issue not a blocker

The final item to checkoff is #56873 and I don't think it needs to be a blocker so have demoted it. But due to DBSF I am not shipping.

To next weeks deployer you should review this one before closing out.
