my personal vote is 32 (close enough to being sqrt of 1000, which helps me mentally convert number from basis 2 to basis 10, also perfect power of 2, a odd power of 2). second would be 42. (Yes, I prefer ranked choice voting)

    10

    It’s the limit of how high a typical person can count on their fingers, and therefore became a fairly standard unit to increase by within language. (Except in french, iirc)

          This is nitpicking, but aren’t Roman numerals usually written in capital letters?
          Did you use lower case letters to avoid confusion between ‘I’ and ‘l’?

    7, because it’s got character. Way cooler than any other single digit number especially. Except maybe 0? Is 0 a number, or a lack of number?
