Follow-up Comment #10, bug #61371 (project groff):

This change has been disputed:
http://lists.gnu.org/r/groff/2021-11/msg00010.html

I don't know whose wording, Bjarni's or Keith's, is more correct here, and no
one else on the list has offered an opinion.  However, Keith's claim that
"decimal separator" is "invalid terminology" is contradicted by Wikipedia's
extensive, and extensively annotated, entry for the term
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_separator>, which also says that "radix
point" is the more general term used when bases other than 10 are under
consideration.
