Instead of 2 x 10,000,000
numbers there are now100,000,000.


No, a significant proportion of those 100,000,000 are unusable, because they
start with 0, or 1, or 999.... also one leading digit (possibly 2) will
never be used, because that will be added to the beginning when the numbers
eventually become 020 abc def ghj.

That's why my vehicle's the Piccadilly Line -
It's the size of a county and it comes every two and a half minutes
