How is the decimal separator in a `Locale` determined?

问题

I have this sample code:

let locale = Locale(identifier: "en_US")
print("Language code: \(locale.languageCode ?? "nil")")
print("Region code: \(locale.regionCode ?? "nil")")
print("Decimal separator: \(locale.decimalSeparator ?? "nil")")

Using en_US in this example (English as language and USA as region) makes the Locale’s decimal separator a . because this is the decimal separator in the specified region "USA":

Language code: en
Region code: US
Decimal separator: .

Using Locale(identifier: "fr_FR") (French in France) for locale makes the decimal separator a , (because this is how the do it in the region of France:

Language code: fr
Region code: FR
Decimal separator: ,

Using French (fr) for the language and the USA (US) for the region in the locale still gives me a , as decimal separator (which seems wrong because the decimal separator should not be determined by the language):

Language code: fr
Region code: US
Decimal separator: ,

The remaining combination would be en_FR which seemingly inconsequentially gives the decimal separator ,:

Language code: en
Region code: FR
Decimal separator: ,

What is the decimal separator dependant on?

Apple’s documentation only says this:

For example, for “en_US”, returns “.”.

How can I get a locale that is french in language but has a . as decimal separator? decimalSeparator is read only…
