I'd not say so. Of course in Estonian my first choice were "1. thing"
but nowadays "Thing 1" is not wrong too. Languages change in time, there
are external influences, etc. Maybe 80 years ago "Thing 1" was wrong,
maybe 40 years ago it was not wrong rather bad style, and today its
equal.. :)
Maybe older people also today think its bad style and in certain
sentences surely it is. Noone tells 'Today is my birthday 40' but we
often tell 'I'm living in apartment 11' ...

Sziasztok!
 

Now it seems the language will be UI language depended but you can change the 
behavior on the UI. What should be the default settings for Estonian language?
 
Best regards,
