These should be exposed for localization (as they are in the old UI).

In my mind these are the JavaScript identifiers for the constructor data types, and thus identical in all browser languages, like they would appear in the output of a console command.
Do you think we should still ask localizers to translate these additional three strings? I'm fine either way.

Yes. Also, that's consistent with the existing experience.
Consider "boolean", which is the most technical of the 3. And yet, Microsoft translates it almost all over the place
