I was wondering about that too. Still something along these lines might be worth considering, since maybe the VM does not have dedicated single symbols for numerals. Do you think in that case their only option would be to write out "twenty two" in full instead of some verbose way of writing numerals?
That would be fine, but this method only assumes ten words (for nine digits + zero), there are many more variants of repeated words in the text. Even if it supposes the use of words for such numbers as ten, hundred, thousand, million, etc., there are too many different doubled or tripled words.
Some of them (in descending order according to the reoccurrence as sequential repetitions in the text):
daiin daiin (25)
qokedy qokedy (11)
chedy chedy (11)
qokeey qokeey (11)
shedy shedy (8)
ol ol (8)
okedy okedy (4)
qotedy qotedy (4)
chdy chdy (4)
okaiin okaiin (4)
dar dar (4)
or or (4)
qol qol (4)
otain otain (3)
qokain qokain (3)
qokal qokal (3)
qokchdy qokchdy (2)
okal okal (2)
otar otar (2)
dain dain (2)
