I see on the page there are also unicode symbols for roman numerals IX, X, and XI. I can see an argument for having a separate character for roman numeral X as opposed to just using a capital X like a normal person would, but where do they get off calling IX and XI numerals? They are two-character sequences, and adding characters for the combinations sounds like all pain and no gain.
