Where are today's Roman Numerals #Maxis?

Could they be descendants from the same gene pool of steadfast highly-educated folks who fought against the adoption of Arabic Numerals?

Europeans first heard of Arabic Numerals in ~ 10th Century, but it took 300 years for the #RomanNumerals maxis to get past their reluctance.

It does seem they have passed on their genes to those who today vehemently support #CentralBanks and #MoneyPrinting, perpetuate Keynesian Economics, #MMT, and tout #fiat > #bitcoin.
