Surely, the correct English-language terminology is "radix point", (and where the radix is "decimal", this becomes "decimal point"). It is irrelevant whether the prevailing convention, of the user's locale, is to represent the radix point by a comma, or a period, we do *not* refer to a "decimal comma", or a "decimal period", (or a "decimal dot"); the correct terminology is "decimal point". This change introduces invalid terminology, and should be reverted.
