I concur. Numbers are naturally right aligned.
Isn't numbers are "naturally right aligned" because of the Big Endian notations that most mathematicians currently use. Had we been using Little Endian notation, numbers would be naturally left-aligned, wouldn't they?
And I sort of disagree with saying it's naturally left- or right- aligned; as numbers are naturally (decimal) dot-aligned (if you use dot to separate the whole and fractional part of your number).
