(I wonder if Sigil wants to see capital O for a zero and small l for a one when I use Courier/monotype?)

monospace (monotype is a trade name

)
Every font set has its foibles (missing characters...)
If the face needs 0 to be an O, then it should just copy the Glyph to that position in the table and not count on the user to know that manual Typewriters did not have 0 keys (or 1's)
