My comment was more aimed at the number limitations this year, and so instead of over thinking it, my opinion is to just follow the rules as written and put your design effort in other aspects of the robot. I would just hate to fail inspection because we "got fancy" with our numbers.
But you know we will see some robot numbers that have some style, are readable and pass inspection.

Well as it turns out, and as others have mentioned here, you CAN follow the rules and still add a little style to your number. I don't have a photo of our finished robot yet, but we went with the standard black numbers on white background for the front and sides, but for the back where we had more room, we incorporated the team name with the number (attached screen shot of graphic)
