Sync Products: Verbb Events translation issue

Events from the Verbb Events plugin are registered as a custom MailChimp Product by your plugin. However, I wasn't seeing them showing up as an option to Sync in the Products section on the Sync tab.

So I investigated further and determined the following exception was being thrown when MailChimp E-Commerce attempts to register Events as a custom product type:

        ...

Seems like somehow the translation category 'events' is not bootstrapped yet by Craft.

In case it's important, my Craft 3 site is using the 'en-au' locale. I tested changing it to the 'en' locale, but that did not resolve the issue.

I'm running latest Craft 3, with latest Commerce and Events plugin.

Hopefully you can reproduce this.
