    It’s even more boring than that - the license plate system already searches ambiguous characters. It’s almost like this issue comes up even without people gaming the system.

      Oh like so I bet

      if license plate person thinks they have 1 on they plate {
        do check to see if it’s \
          actually == i
      }

  Pretty sure the database actually treats them as the same character. So not sure if someone can’t have a different arrangement of I and 1 or if they all just get investigated if one of them commits a crime.
