I read about such things for a long time, in the USA IT is widely used in archeology It is used. It is better to look for information on foreign sites, it is useless in Runet.

Answer 2

I'm afraid it will be bad enough if even now OCR does not always distinguish between I from 1 and from l. There, as far as I remember, it is on such nuances that cuneiform is built, no?
