For now, you can test the modifications I propose and share test cases
with me.
Right now, test cases would be the most useful. For example, if you
could provide uses of #expr or #formatnum that the user would normally
have to switch to English Format, that would be a great start.
In my crazy dreams, I can see adding support to #expr and the like for
supporting Devnagari number forms
(
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devanagari#Numerals).
But let's focus on your use case for now.
By the way, what happens if you have users with
different user language?
Any translation is going to use the number system of the wiki's content
language, not the user's interface language (see
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Language_in_MediaWiki).
