Description
format_float() currently does not to any thousands grouping eg:
1234567.89
vs
1,234,567.89
https://github.com/moodle/moodle/blob/master/lib/moodlelib.php#L8782
There is no reason it can't its just doing it properly and supporting all the funky languages that sometimes do 4 digits, or 2 digits, or sometimes 3 and then 2. php doesn't support this out of the box but it should not be that crazy to implement and would improve the UX / readability of many large numbers across many places.
