Description
Summary
Example
Joining by ',' isn't translatable into other languages. Will need to look into Intl.ListFormat
Category
BUG
Real-life consequences (anything community should be aware of, for instance how it affects end users)
Can't fully translate text into languages that don't separate list items with a comma

Research direction
Start with the list-joining change shown in the linked pull request diff and inspect where the comma-separated text is produced. Investigate Intl.ListFormat for the affected languages; the work is done when list items use locale-appropriate separators instead of assuming commas.
