At least some asian languages have a concept of https://en.wikipedia.org/wi= ki/Myriad and group them by 4, at least from the language point of view. It does seem when writing as numbers they still group by 3, but it seems ot= her usages exists: https://japantoday.com/category/features/lifestyle/10-000-or-1-0000-japanes= e-schools-are-starting-to-move-commas-on-big-numbers-but-why Anyway, just wanted to point out that grouping digit may not be completely = universal. I will not vote no on the RFC, most likely I won=E2=80=99t vote. But I thin= k I will not use this in my code. C=C3=B4me
