I'm sure Mr. Mohammadi-Far has good reasons to suggest that. But in practical term, a comma in a Persian font will be designed according to that particular font face and it's esthetic requirements and thousands separator may look like persian Reh. But to use the actual code of Persian Reh for thousands separator in ANY font will result in ugly surprises!

e-Greetings,
I sawhttp://students.washington.edu/irina/persianword/format.htm,
But a note:
As described in the book "Nogh-teh GozAri" (The official Persian Manual of Editing, Vol.5, Punctuaion Book) written by "Mohammad-RezA Mohammadi-Far", page 460:
It is not correct to use comma (",") or U+06CC to separate every group of thousands in numbers. Instead, the editor must use the Persian letter 'Reh (U+0631)'.
Bedrood,
