    There are just different conventions - similar to British English
    and American English. From a practical point of view, it is important
    to note that the mapping
       U+0552 --> 7000
       U+0582 --> 7000
    is *unambiguous*.
    However, the sequences
       U+0548 U+0552
       U+0578 U+0582
    may denote either 7000 or 7600.

    Please note:
      7,000 = 7.000 = 7 but 7000 = 70 * 100
    See ISO 1000 and ISO 31.
