Thank you, I think LC_NUMERIC will work for the number formatting, my company
is also looking for something along the lines of this, and hoping to use
locale/systemd to handle it:

It sounds like you're reinventing LC_NUMERIC.
The locale system has a lot more than just LANG; it already allows the
number format to be overridden separately from the "language". Take a look
at `locale -k LC_NUMERIC` and <
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/basedefs/xbd_chap07.html>.
Adding custom variables would require changing a lot ? I guess the main
consumers are libc (Glibc) and libstdc++ (GCC), but of course there are
many places which set the existing LC_* and expect things to change
accordingly, or which might implement the standard interfaces on their own
without using libc.

No, you can use systemd-cat to then invoke your script which applies
to every output of it.
Also, you can just use reply-all in gmail (or even set it as the
default in the settings) to have the correct behaviour of sending
mails also the the mailing list.
