I assume the author of that README is from continental Europe and the decimal separator that has been used is a comma.

Yes, I assumed so. The alarming part is not the formatting of the numbers, but that there's 145MB of source code and almost a GB of build artefacts... for an Android text editor. That's more code than PostgreSQL.

I'd assume majority of "source code" in this is assets not code.

Also git clone with history vs tarball etc..

Maybe they sacrifise size for benefits in other areas - performance and/or simplicity of developing.
