If 2 is not a palindrome, because if you prepend 0 it loses its palindrome properties, then no number is a palindrome. 121 cannot be a palindrome because 121 can also be written as 0121, and therefore it’s not a palindrome. Further, there is nothing “unfair” about 0. It’s a real distinction. 002 is the same thing as 2. 112 is not the same thing as 2. So it’s not an unfair property. It’s a real distinction.
