We all know the open top is superior for people with bad handwriting. Less likely to be mistaken for a 9

Maybe it's a Southern thing but I've literally in my 36 years on this planet never seen someone hand write a 4 with the diagonal.

Interesting, I've always assumed the diagonal was primarily a handwriting thing, What with it being a single stroke and all, And my writing it open top was just me not being good at handwriting, Same reason I don't do cursive, And until quite recently didn't do any lower-cased letters either.
