Well, they were specifically constructed to be related to the other symbols in a natural progression.

Ideally they could be taught alongside the more commonly used hindu/arabic system to allow kids to translate back and forth if they had issues with reversal and such.

Been trying to pick up more feedback from dyslexi/calc folks.

Had a bunch of "there's nothing wrong with (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9)" responses... I'm like 'you're not dyslexi/calc are you?' "no, does it matter?"... lol, that's kinda the point.
I am 'deslectic' and tend to reverse both 'numbers, and letters, this makes for difficulties in wrighting if I am 'rushed to do it, but other wise,in reading I see what I'm reading, not the 'words'but Images. I also think in Three Dimentions, this makes two dimentional,'aribic' numbers difficult for me to make sense of,In trying to work with written numbers, I only see static, when doing 'math' using these numbers,in my opinion there Is 'something wrong' with them-they're numbers that 'numb' my brain. :roll:
