Try changing your locale to e.g. ru-RU, and you would get a different belief:
that "original programmers" intended to only accept semicolons as argument
separators, commas as decimal separators, and that there's no "VLOOKUP"
function, but instead "ВПР". What you see is *not* an indication of any
"programmers' intention", but a result of localization effort, allowing people
to use familiar UI, similar to that of related localized Excel. It is unrelated
to API, where programmer uses techniques that are as much as possible generic.
