Thanks for the in-depth analysis. My misunderstanding was about what an
identifier considers a number; I have no well-thought-out ideas on the
subject of what an identifier ought to be.

Having the docs mention that "number" means only characters with a Unicode
Property GeneralCategory of Nd might have prevented me from looking through
the NumericTypes for a pattern. With more experimenting, I might have
noticed that De was the one that always worked, since De has a one-to-one
correspondence with Nd...
