    I was thinking about this one, and how it might be possible to get used to this system just as well. Neuroplasticity is so cool with how adaptable it makes us

    It would be similar to writing each number out in quadrants, just with fewer lines for each digit.

    7893 would become

    9|3
    7|8
    

    1234 would become

    3|4
    1|2
    

    It might function similar to how we read words and sentences in chunks instead of word-by-word or letter-by-letter. I imagine we already do that with some numbers, which is why we chunk numbers as 120,000.05 or 555-555-1234
