Isn't a string backward compatible with a Char?
No. You can't typecast or ORD() it anymore, or subtract other chars from
it.
I'm not sure how many people are trying to do that on the ThousandSeparator
variable, but in theory you are right.
charvar:=ThousandSeparator;

Basically anything fails except where the char is converted to string. I
don't the compat issues are theoretic. There for sure exists code that
assigns thousandseparator to a char or passes it to a var parameter.
