This is a known issue that unfortunately occurs until the locale release is ready.
allow this command to download the lastest version (6.2.2, instead of 6.3 in the example) to use the desired locale. wp --allow-root core download --locale=fr_FR --force
or add a flag to allow downloading the previous working version.
I don't think we should automatically downgrade. Making it a specific opt-in behavior with a flag seems fine, though.
Feel free to submit a pull request, if you'd like. Here is some guidance on our pull request best practices.
Bug Report
_wp core download --locale=xxXX crash when lastest WP version is not in the desired locale
_wp core download && wp language core install frFR --activate is broken too (install ok but not the lang, switching to FR in admin break the website with sql errors)
Example
_wp --allow-root core download --locale=frFR --force crash with : Error: The requested locale (fr_FR ) was not found.
Temp fix force previous version
_wp --allow-root core download --locale=frFR --version=6.2.2 --force
