You are using the wrong character here.  What you use is

  name: DEGREE SIGN
  general-category: So (Symbol, Other)
  decomposition: (176) ('°')

whereas the correct character is

  name: MASCULINE ORDINAL INDICATOR
  general-category: Lo (Letter, Other)
  decomposition: (super 111) (super 'o')

My mastery of Spanish (and/or Portuguese?) is non-existing, but it would
seem like the name and existence of that glyph makes it likely that its
presence alone should be indicative of an ordinal number.
