They’re called old style figures! They come from European sign painting and early typography :)

What??!! This is fun. Genuinely. I cant get the hang of tone tags, but this absolutely made me smile. I had no idea about lowercase numbers!

Georgia is one of my preferred fonts and I had no idea that this was why the numbers were a little different! 😹

I feel trolled. By that guy you trust to never troll you, but then you realize that is what made him the best person to do the trolling.

Huh. I guess I write my numbers lowercase. My 3,5,7, and 9 all descend below the line.

Why is this a thing. I teach ESL. This language already gives my poor students nightmares. We do not need to make it worse!
