Take your eBook with the superscripted 1 for the tap zone and load it onto your Libra 2 as an ePub and try to tap the 1. It's not going to be easy. But if you used [01] in the same size as the main body font, it would be quite easy to tap and you'd keep your numbering.

I'm sorry, but this is just... silly. I've already pointed out that
every nonfiction book I have that contains footnotes uses "the superscripted 1 for the tap zone". No doubt there are a few that don't - and using non-superscripts in square brackets is something I've certainly seen in academic journals. But the idea that everyone out there using 99% of professionally published ebooks is stabbing away a the screen in frustration, completely unable to hit the superscript note cues, is... let's just say, counterfactual. I'm really confused about how nearly everyone on here is convinced it's a completely impractical/unacceptable style, to the point where even my mention of it invokes fits of derision and condescension, when LITERALLY THE WHOLE OF THE BOOK INDUSTRY STILL USES IT IN EBOOKS.
