Description

When using the 2d format string with parentheses I'd like list_valid_format_labels to support 3 decimal places in both the first and second entries e.g. xx.xxx (xx.xxx)
Currently I have to choose either to use a slash instead of parentheses with "xx.xxx / xx.xxx" or reduce to 2 dp's for the first entry with "xx.xx (xx.xxx)"

Thanks

Research direction

Start at list_valid_format_labels() and trace how 2d format strings with parentheses are validated, comparing the existing slash form and the two-decimal first-entry form described in the issue. Done means the parenthesized format xx.xxx (xx.xxx) is accepted while existing formats continue to work.
