  Love it. Instead of upper/lower (romans didnt have lowercase?) I would define a latin word, say "dividum" and write it as CCCXIV DIVIDUM C Which for short would be: CCCXIVDVDC Where DVD is a nonsensical or at least redundant roman numeral (500 + 495 = 995 VM). For readability we now add a new symbol to unicode of a V and a D superimposed. N.B. Latin nerds... I dont care what the proper term for "divided by" is.
