    depends if you’ve ever written down a password and misread a seven then you’ve literally wasted more time by not doing it.

    though strike through zero is probably more important for that situation.

      Now do you misread a 7? Maybe as a T if you have particularly bad handwriting, but I can’t say I’ve ever had that issue

      O and 0, on the other hand… tell me why strikethrough zero isn’t standard in text format yet

      @metaStatic I have found that the fastest way to parse long passwords eg software keys is if you underline all numbers as you write them down.
