It's not linguistically correct for Nth to be used with a binary number, right? It's not like we would say 0b10nd, would we?
I mean, I get the intent with Debian's post, and I think it's fun! I'm more curious if there's other suffixes to use for this kind of thing when it's not base10

I don't think this happens enough for us to be able to derive descriptive usage, never mind prescriptive rules.

All that matters is the last digit, so "th" is correct. In binary you would just have _th and _st.

I will always have a soft spot in my heart for Debian. It always seemed the most true to a lot of the early Linux/OSS principles.

Debian isn't always my first choice, but it is my favorite choice when I build systems that need to stand the test of time.
