Why the need for this change? * is a commonly used mathematical symbol for multiplication, to avoid confusion with x as a variable.

In UI , The * symbol is shown as dot(.) , so to avoid confuion with dot(.) and multiplication , 'x' should be implemented

In real world, generally we use dot(.) for decimals and 'x' for multiplication , so for better user experience it will be better to use "x", in our mobile or laptop on screen calculators we generally use 'x' as multiplying symbol.
