Interesting point. Didn't pay much attention to these numerals, yet.
Back in the 1970's, I ran across a detailed study of character shape
with
dmit that I wasn't specific enough in my first question.
When I wrote "sans serif", I meant "a not serif font".
Actually I wasn't looking for a monospace font either
(but didn't state that explicitly).
For now "IBM Plex" seems to do a good job.
Thanks,

Hmm. IBM Plex. Not bad-looking, and it does solve the stated problem.
I will note that like Bistream Swiss Monospaced, it's only *nominally*
sans-serif, in that it has slab-serifs (Stymie-style, rather than
Clarendon-style) on the capital I, and one small slab-serif on the
lowercase l.

For a proportional font, Verdana, Regular seems to come close with, it
