Screenshot of the dialog preview in Orca MSI authoring tool

OOO_CONTROL_206 is the placeholder string that is used for ErrorText control in
SetupError dialog [1], which is defined as ErrorDialog [2] in the installer.
This dialog is managed by Windows Installer [3], and the content of the
ErrorText control is set by the service at runtime.

I believe that the reason why there is an explicit text there in Control.ulf is
just to simplify testing of the dialog using e.g. Orca's dialog preview (see
attachment).

I do not see a harm in its existence, and maybe it just needs a notice that it
needs no translation.
