Now do you misread a 7? Maybe as a T if you have particularly bad handwriting, but I can’t say I’ve ever had that issue
O and 0, on the other hand… tell me why strikethrough zero isn’t standard in text format yet
Can be misread as a 1, especially in languages that write 1 with a more extended top bit.
Ah, I always write my 1s as just a straight line
Though it does make all my 1s, capital Is, and lowercase ls look the same
well if you stroke through a zero, it's too easy to confuse with an empty set
