The goal of the upstream locale(1) page is to document the syntax of
the command.
At the start of the locale(1) page, there is this paragraph:
When invoked without arguments, locale displays the current
locale settings for each locale category (see locale(5)), based
on the settings of the environment variables that control the
locale (see locale(7)).
And all of the relevant locale environment variables, including LC_ALL
and LANG, are documented in locale(7).
Cheers,
Michael
