    I don’t really care which, but if I’m not mistaken it’s the majority of the world population in this case not just the US.

        But commas and dots don’t form part of the metric system?

        Ihr könnt gerne umwechseln wenn ihr wollt :3

        My main argument for the English/Chinese/Indian system (I have no idea where this system originated), is that in many languages (including German), commas function as pauses and full stops (period, by the Americans) as a stronger separator between thoughts, so it makes more sense to seperate digits with commas (in my opinion)

        It’s all ultimately arbitrary, and I don’t really care which we pick.
