              Guilty. I used the sum symbol for a fancy “E” riffling through my phone keyboards. I know there is a better ascii character.

                It’s not an E; it’s a Sigma standing in for summation.

    Yep I couldn’t understand why they chose to use Roman notation. To be honest though 11 is a weird age cut off to have picked.

      They probably decided on 10 or below, but it didn’t sound as catchy in the marketing

          Binary for three. Two would be 1 0 which would then get confused with 10 which would actually take us full circle.

            That’s why the changed it from 10 to 11 during testing, because people kept thinking it meant 2

          Which is in Roman numerals

          But also works in arabic numerals
