The squares are missing characters; if I output the string to the console, I can see that these are an FSI and PDI character - these are used to isolate the variable part of the translation text and improve handling of RTL languages.

Obviously we don't want to display these, so let's figure out either:

  1. How to hide them in the finalised string (preferable)
  2. How to disable the feature entirely
