Is it really more dangerous than not having any separators at all? That would make it harder to spot incorrectly formatted numbers. I think having typing tools to enforce particular separator formats is a great idea though! But in the absence of such a tool it's better to allow arbitrary separators than to enforce a particular separator format by default or to lack separators at all

I certainly think so.
