In fairness the question is open to interpretation. They don’t specify if they mean western or eastern Arabic numerals.
As schools in the west already teach western, the people responding could justifiably deduce that the question is referring to eastern.
Could it also be to do with the increased lethality of SUVs? A study in Ireland shows 11.5% of pedestrians hit by an SUV were killed versus 4.5% for a car.

There is another way. Push back. Decline meeting invites along with a note “Thanks for the invite but I don’t think I’m needed at this one am I?” 90% of the time people don’t even read your decline reason.
