Emacs documentation says that Emacs uses the value of LC_NUMERIC:

It is a confusing statement, see:

I see. I am surprised by the disparity between documentation and
reality, given the quality I have learned to associate with emacs.
You may report a documentation-related bug to debbugs.gnu.org. Far in
the past there were some changes in the code, maybe update of
documentation was forgotten.
src/ChangeLog.6
1996-04-08 Richard Stallman <r...@mole.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
(x_term_init): Restore LC_TIME as well as LC_NUMERIC.
1995-07-16 Richard Stallman <r...@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
(x_term_init) [HAVE_X11XTR6]: Set LC_NUMERIC and LC_TIME back to C.
Git archeology may provide more detailed info, though I have not tried.
