I would love it if we could move to thin-line thousands separators and middle dot for decimals [1]. I know it won't happen, but that would be amazing. [1] htt

  I'd read that as multiplication instead... This is what you get from using inconsistent symbols for important functions, I would not be surprised at all if people died over '.' vs ',' in a piece of medical gear or avionics. I'd use a completely new symbol before repurposing an old one. And in a way the '*' that computer languages tend to use for multiplication serves as a nice way to avoid mixups (as opposed to 'x').
