Intentional Friction
In a world optimized for speed, Roman numerals slow you down. And sometimes that's the point. A copyright year in MMXXVI makes you pause and decode. A memorial date in MCMXLV forces a moment of effort — and that effort is itself a form of respect. Roman numerals turn reading a number into a small act of attention.

The most practical thing about Roman numerals, in the end, is that they look good on stuff. The Roman Empire's number system outlived the empire by 1,500 years and counting. Not because it's useful, but because it's beautiful. Those seven impractical letters persist wherever we want to say: this matters, this is enduring.

It is thought Roman numerals come from hand signals and tally marks. The stroke I represents a finger, the V represents the gap between thumb and fingers for five, and the X represents hands crossed for ten. The L, C, D, and M come from modifications of Greek letters like chi, theta, and phi to represent 50, 100, 500, and 1,000. Over time, these marks changed into the Latin letters people recognize today. There is no 0 in the Roman alphabet, as the concept for the number 0 didn't fully develop until India invented it around 600 CE / 10600 HE.
