It might be ridiculous, but why is it unusable? Just define the options
you need.

I could imagine one. The meaning of the separators in a float number
depends on the locale. Here in Germany for example the meaning is
reversed. So IMHO it makes sense to force the developer to think about
this potential issue and explicitly define the behaviour of this filter.
OK, most likely not the strongest reason ...
