I see what you did there.
Somebody should create a programming language that implements all real-world number idiosyncracies. Don't have 4 or 13; define π as 3 and τ as 6, print 6 three times every time it occurs for good luck (or bad luck, depending on where you live), replace all numbers close to 8 with 8 in money values for great prosperity, have a constant for "dozen" that's 13 in case you're counting loaves of bread, have a rounding function that rounds to a close number that's easy to say depending on your locale...
And let's go with 0.5-based indexing as a compromise.
