I'd love to hear what's objectively 'wrong' with this one. They're arbitrary symbols. If anything, isn't the decimal more akin to a full stop, while a digit separator is more of a pause?

Having a full stop between thousands is just as stupid. It's completely arbitrary. It's only unfortunate that it's yet another difference hindering communication (and numbers parsing, dammit)
