I think this meets the definition of "ambiguous." I honestly could not tell that was a zero..a hexagon isn't a typical zero shape. And zeros typically aren't circles; they're ovals, so the regular shape of the hexagon threw me off. The letters are, to me, something not a number. So if I inspected this robot I would tell you to fix the numbers, and of course the LTS would end up getting involved.

If the rest of the numbers were in a font that more closely matched the hexagon I think you'd have a better argument. But to me the letters would still be a problem.
