Yes it is.

Evidently not only.  To be more precise, and as the method names indicate, 
it is first determined by the locale, however that is set.  For example,

  LC_TIME=de_CH.UTF-8 firefox-esr

causes

  d.toLocaleString() === "4.1.2018, 16:41:34"

while

  LC_TIME=C firefox-esr

causes

  d.toLocaleString() === "1/4/2018, 4:41:34 PM"

for the same Date d, whereas “firefox-esr” starts navigator.userAgent === 
"Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0".

> AIUI, on a fully-Microsoft PC […]

There is no such thing, and there is not only Microsoft Windows.  “JJ” had 
tested on different *Linux* distributions, without taking into account that 
the distribution does not determine the date and time format, but first the 
locale which may be determined by settings of the used desktop 
(environment)¹, and then the used script engine.
