Here’s another thing that doesn’t make sense about that post:
If you play Dungeons & Dragons, this object probably stops you in your tracks.
If you just play Dungeons & Dragons, then it looks like the hundreds or thousands of other d20s you’ve seen. Barely worth a look.
On the other hand, if you just like dice, like a lot of TTRPG people do, then it might catch your attention.

I’d guess the Romans who came up with it selected the letters arbitrarily. It wasnt the alphabet they used in day to day life, so maybe they just omitted some of them to make it work.

Sorry, that paragraph is AI written but I was asking about something I know and too lazy to rewrite it myself.
The Phoenician alphabet which influenced the greek script had 22 letters afaik. Still doesn’t match the sides but it’s closer
