Decimal point on Euro currency when living in Europe

Yes, many countries use the comma as the decimal delimiter, whether for 'normal' numbers or for currency. However, that is not the point here.

Mac OS allows to change the grouping and decimal delimiters for numbers and currency, but it does not apply the change to the currency if the currency is Euro and the region in the previous screen is either NL/FR/GE/AT/IT (at least, there may be more).

If you select one of these countries as region and Euro as currency, then the formatting of currency remains as per the countries default (comma for decimal) whatever delimiters you choose.

If you select Ireland, the default is comma for thousands and period for decimals, but you can change it to any other choice. Same with other currencies, even in one of the previously named countries.

Example screenshots for France: default for numbers and currency is space for thousands and comma for decimals. I can change the delimiters for numbers, but not the delimiters for currency when the currency is Euro.

Thank you! I had tried Netherlands (where I am), France, Italy, Germany and Austria, but none of those work. Ireland works, so that is my setting now.

Strange bug... I thought it would be tied to Europe, or EU, or Euro countries, but it seems more random.

When I set my region to Germany, I get the same as Netherlands, France, Italy,...

I can change the Euro setting from comma to period in the drop-down menu, but it does actually change the setting. See screenshot where I selected period and the setting still show comma.
