This reminds me of "Are DIGIT SEVEN and DIGIT SEVEN
WITH STROKE distinct characters?" Yeah, our decimal
number system has at least thirteen digits:
DIGIT ZERO
DIGIT ZERO WITH STROKE
DIGIT ONE
DIGIT TWO
DIGIT THREE
CLOSED DIGIT FOUR
OPEN DIGIT FOUR
DIGIT FIVE
DIGIT SIX
DIGIT SEVEN
DIGIT SEVEN WITH STROKE
DIGIT EIGHT
DIGIT NINE
