I don't agree that there is a problem here. The spec is quite clear that you
combine multiple *declarations* with the same name to construct a
*decimal-format*, and errors 12990 and 1300 apply to *decimal-formats*, not to
*declarations*. The terms used are carefully defined and hyperlinked.
Declarations cannot conflict, only decimal-formats can conflict, and we explain
the relationship of decimal-formats to declarations quite precisely. In other
words, we mandate the approach you consider desirable, of grouping declarations
before doing any consistency checking.
