I reverted the change. I didn't think the *default* locale would change during 
the application's life. Does `Chronology` need to change its caching too? 
There's `Chronology.ofLocale(Locale)` that can adjust to the default locale with

    private static final Locale defaultLocale() {
        return Locale.getDefault(Locale.Category.FORMAT);
    }

    private static final Chronology defaultChrono() {
        return Chronology.ofLocale(defaultLocale());
    }
