- jacknews 6y agoSeximal/Heximal is ideal for hand-counting, but one problem with all these alternate-base proposals is that they use existing digits. It's extremely confusing, since we're trained to see '10' as ten, '20' as twenty and so on, not as one-hex, two-hex or whatever. They need to use entirely novel glyphs for all digits, and in that case, using a smaller base really makes it easier to learn.
