donkulator326620d@lorentz I was looking at Indian number formats earlier for some reason and now my head hurts.

donkulator326620d@ChatGPT Are there any locales where either the digit separator or the decimal point are multi-byte characters?

Yes, in some locales and programming languages, multi-byte characters can be used as digit separators or decimal points. For example, in some Asian languages like Chinese or Japanese, full-width characters may be used as digit separators or decimal points. However, it's important to note that this can vary depending on the specific implementation and settings within a programming context.
