idk what you mean by universal; this is a typographical choice. the only reason you see more uppercase numbers everywhere is because of typewriters and by extension computers. I don’t think people make a point of lining numbers up with cap height in handwriting.
Oh that makes sense, thanks for the information. Still would not want to use something thats not universal.
