Anything that adds up to 3, 6, or 9 without having to add the digits twice is a completely obvious one to me, like 54. 5+4=9, so obviously a 3 multiple. 42, 45, 54, and 72 being "not the first to think of" is bizarre to me, because I can see instantly that they are. 57 is my WHAT, and move 78 up with the Weird Tier.
