Does no one write their 1 as a simple line down?
1 do, buy sometimes it can be important to make sure you mean I and not 1 (and definitely not l) if you're writing a code of some kind.
BOO... × IOO + BS
I do, but then it's too easy to confuse with absolute value. Beats confusing it with 7 though
I'm sure some do. But not everyone does. This helps avoid the confusion.
Only when writing binary or truth tables.
I do, but dependent upon context. If there is no risk of confusion with a capital I or lower-case l (though I tend to write the latter with a slight rightward curve at the bottom), then yeah, it’s just a basic vertical line.
This is a thousand percent more than I thought I’d ever write about my penmanship. Welp.
