That's fair.

Bur that's rather strange! The C locale is meant to be the default
one, and should always behave correctly, shouldn't it? It is always
present and a program should not depend on a specific locale.
Do you remember the issues you had with the C locale? Maybe we/one
can help you fix them and use it instead of a en_US locale (remember
that the user may not have the right permissions to install such a
locale).
