Comma or no comma, shouldn't matter 1000 mega watts or 1,000 Mega watts is still one thousand million watts! NOT one thousands watts. true?

Agreed.
The only thing, other than for times and dates, that I write between numbers is a decimal point. Commas and dots to split numbers into groups of three have no use.
