So, if I understand correctly. A CLDR Locale defines at least one
numberFormat (decimal, scientific, whatever). It may choose to
actually define a family of formats (long, medium, etc). And in that
case, one *may* find a default indicating which is to be used. The
only case I find in the current main files is the bz_DT which adds a
longScientificFormat, and then indicates that this is to be the
default, rather than whatever is inherited as the default definition.
Have I interpreted this correctly?
