I don't think right-to-left is the issue, since numbers in Arabic are still written left-to-right. However, they use different digits, which don't fit on a 7-se

  It's still confusing though, because I can't think of any cultures that don't understand Western Arabic Numerals and use them regularly alongside their local version. It might be a strict requirement from the government upon Microsoft though. I seem to remember the Canadian government leaning heavily on Microsoft for an Inuktitut translation of their products, even though only 30,000 speak it: https://nunatsiaq.com/stories/article/microsoft_to_roll_out_inuktitut_software_upgrades/ https://nunatsiaq.com/stories/article/microsoft_to_roll_out_... It always frustrated me that there were Inuktitut and Welsh versions of Microsoft products, but no real (British) English versions of them. Network Neighborhood indeed!
