    But we are speaking about a Computer Font right now, idk what that has to do with handwriting and who cares about handwriting in 2024. With universal i mean that any kind of number should look god, no matter if its a Telefon Number, a Price or a Street Number.

      we’re not speaking about a computer font, we’re speaking about typography in general. the reason I mentioned them is because the ubiquity was forced by restrictions. we used to type non-english letters without diacritics before different languages got support online. now we don’t have those restrictions either. what you said is not universal; there are different kinds for different uses. just like uppercase and lowercase letters.
