Hey All,  
I’ve noticed that dry-validation is injecting values into Rails I18n.

After loading a contract with i18n two keys are being added.

> :acceptance=\>“must accept %{key}” (under :errors)  
> :or=\>“or” (on root)

I’ve created a clean rails app and tested on the console to show what’s happening.

> ruby ‘2.5.3’  
> gem “dry-validation”, “~\> 1.2.1”  
> gem ‘rails’, ‘~\> 5.2.3’

> errors.en.yml file is basically empty.

> Loading development environment (Rails 5.2.3)  
> irb(main):001:0\> class ApplicationContract \< Dry::Validation::Contract  
> irb(main):002:1\> config.messages.backend = :i18n  
> irb(main):003:1\> config.messages.load\_paths \<\< File.join(Rails.root, “config”, “locales”, “dry-validations”, “errors.en.yml”)

It’s not Rails I18n, it’s just I18n. When you configure dry-validation to use I18n, it’s gonna add its keys to the translations. Is this a problem for some reason?
