I live in Canada and I've never seen "1.000,00". Canada (at least the anglophone part that I live in) follows the usual "1,000.00" format. Why is this library using commas as decimal separators?

This is very interesting. I agree that some of the formatting puzzled me as well. I would assume this follows some standard even when the use of said standard is uncommon. I have for example not seen 1.000,00 € used, but I thought that perhaps if you live in Germany, France, or another EU country then it is common.

Yup, that's indeed the format used in some European countries. Canada was surprising though. 🤷‍♂️
