Arabic Numerals (standard)
Why, oh why were you abandoned?
Sitting pouring through annual reports, I have to say I hate these goddamned Hindi numbers used in the Machreq. Hate, hate, hate. After so much time, I still hate them. Fucking pain in the ass to read (a two and a three on a 2nd generation photocopy looks the same), fucking pain overall.
The other annoyance issue is the bizarro non-standard translations of English financial terminology. I can usually guess, but fuck, standardize!
