        I think what snor is saying is that the “hatted” 1 prevents mistaking it for an I when there are numerals and letters in the same context.

          If they curved the tick instead of some angled dash nonsense there would be no mistake. Thus an angled top on a 1, rather than curved, should be a punishable offense
