    Proper use of grouping separators (commas in some locales, dots/periods/full-stops in others, although there are some standards that specify spaces instead - which I personally find problematic) might’ve helped clear up the orientation issue as well.

      l10n is a removed. The exceptions are almost as bad as timezones…

      The swiss use ’ as a separator. So they would write 900’000 which upside down would look like 000,006 so the confusion could continue
