However underscores are just as useful with bases other than decimal. Do you mean that underscore parsing would be always on for the #b #o #x prefixes? In that case maybe it could be always on for the #d prefix too. If I understood correctly, the compatibility problems raised so far all pertain to decimal numbers without a prefix.
