This setting is still mostly boolean, it toggles between on and off if you
don't explicitly set it. I left it as is because most other settings are
still on/off.

I changed "Using pager is always." because it is not good english.

For me it's fine with "Using pager is off." but I wouldn't protest if it
was changed. Both are just as fine if you ask me.

I don't know what you ask here. Do you have an example of a _( ) that is
not needed then it should be removed of course. The rest that I saw was
needed.

_() is used for translations. To mark "\n" for translation make no sense.
