Gotcha questions like this (eg "should we ban dihydromonoxide") are supposed to show us not to jump to conclusions, but I'm guessing the people voting no on this one aren't taking much away from it

I think the point is less the conclusions of the poll itself, but moreso the ignorance of the average person about what the Arabic numerals are.
