Not at all, I know perfectly well where that comes from. I'd be upset if
I didn't. I set all that in my shell config. It's a kind of a legacy
contamination from remote shell machines. As I don't have root on all
the shell machines I use, I have traditionally configured locales in
shell init there. And at some point, I've copied those locale settings
to my home desktop, possibly other machines too.

I guess one of these days I'll run update-locale and clean up my shell
config.
