I was going to point him to these commits to formatting.c:

Revert because C locale uses "" for thousands_sep, meaning "n/a", while
French uses "" for "don't want". Seems we have to keep the existing
behavior.

Support "" for thousands separator and plus sign in to_char(), per

One idea would be to handle C locale behavior differently from non-C
locale.
