The field eraFormatter in TemporalCodecs.scala is missing an explicit reference to Locale.US which can cause unexpected behavior when a locale db with i.e. british locale is added to the dependencies.

I encountered this because we added https://github.com/cquiroz/scala-java-locales to our project, whose default db, which is recommended in the repository, is for british english.

Thanks, should we target this to series/0.6.x branch?

Interesting. Where exactly is this, can you point me to it?

Edit: ah, this bit in the README?

scala-java-locales will try to guess the locale but if it can't or it is not not the locales db it sets en (English) as the default locale. This is a design decision to support the many API calls that require a default locale. It seems that Scala.js de facto uses en for number formatting.

Specifically this arose because we were using $date from TemporalCodecs in a query which before adding the library formatted a date as 2023-03-12 and as 2023-03-12 CE after which postgres wasn't able to process.
