Been using tapes for 40+ years several to dozens of times a day. I don't even see the big numbers but for an isntant, I'm always focused on the fractions. Yes, that has bit me more than once.
But, the lines have no top or bottom. And all these years I have struggled with 11/16 vs. 13/16. But as an old carpenter once said (me), "There are no sixteenths in a house."
So in that situation. 3/4s will generally do. Shy or fat. If it gets more precise, then it's a RCH.
