What might be sensible to ask is whether it is ever actually reasonable for LC_COLLATE and LC_CTYPE to have different settings. If we were willing to enforce that they be the same, we could reduce this to just the standard syntax COLLATE=something and be done with it. Not being much of a user of anything except C locale, I might be the wrong person to opine on this; but it seems to me that having them different is far more likely to be a mistake than desirable.
Agreed, it doesn't make much sense. I find it hard to imagine anyone doing that on purpose, but we have supported it at initdb time for ages.
