Not sure why NBSP is used for formatting but if we look at e.g. Albanian
where there's an earlier Trac ticket stating that thousands separator
has been changed to NBSP (https://unicode.org/cldr/trac/ticket/5247),
the initial reference I mentioned
(https://www.unicode.org/cldr/charts/33/by_type/numbers.symbols.html#a1ef41eaeb6982d)
and the corresponding Albanian file (common/main/sq.xml) inside the
above zip are both consistent with the change to use NBSP as recorded in
the Trac ticket.
