in xvcv_mdlc_scripted_loc.txt there are defined_text objects with a name key.
Example is Get_xvcv_mdlc_leader_making_scientist_subclass
There's a matching reference in xvcv_mdlc_l_english_leader_making_customgui.yml
XVCV_MDLC_LEADER_SCIENTIST_TRAIT_HEADER:0 "[This.Get_xvcv_mdlc_leader_making_scientist_subclass]"

localization_key = xvcv_mdlc_leader_making_scientist_subclass_scientist_explorer
