This seems to be a European issue perhaps? I've never once been confused by a comma in a number. In fact, it makes them easier to read, not harder.

Can you describe your experience with numbers? Are you a mathematician or in some other scientific field?

Also, it seems odd to make a request like this of a (seemingly) random author on the internet. It feels similar to making a demand to change writing style. (ie, oxford comma, em-dash, etc...) Do you think it's reasonable to ask someone else, for what seems to me, is a cultural or occupational perspective should be adhered to just because of an individuals momentary state of confusion?
