Re: [elreq] Why doesn't Intl.Locale include the Ethiopic numbering system for Ethiopic Locales (#132)

Second question first, best to ask on a CLDR related list. Although, I assume a decimal based system would allow easier computations, and a significant number of users use Arabic digits by default.

For the first question, I assume that ICU is being used under the hood, and going by the API docs, currently, ICU only supports numbering systems whose radix is 10.

Also the relevant language tag would be `am-ET-u-nu-ethi`. By default locales tend to use Arabic digits, unless an alternative is specified when the locale instance is created.
