Description
The number scrubber doesn't appear for all numbers, especially if there are certain combinations of letters symbols, or (lack of?) spaces that precede it.
I've documented a whole bunch of possible combinations here. Test by clicking every occurrence of "123" (or scrolling through with arrow keys).

It's a little unclear if we want to prevent scrubbing of numbers that are part of variable names, so we should probably settle that before attempting to make a fix (if needed).

Research direction
Start with the linked number-scrubber example and reproduce the documented combinations by clicking or navigating through each occurrence of "123". First settle whether numbers inside variable names should be scrubbed; done means the agreed behavior is consistent across the documented cases.
