Fair enough, I'm wrong, they are subtly different italic fonts, but the trim colors (red for name, red yellow for numbers) remains the same.

Shoulder numbers, sure, case can be made in there for a single trim there on the RR beause of the background (though if they used with a yellow line not black, it may still be fine), and that's fine.

Point stands about the outlining inconsistency. I understand no double color trim for the names for legibility, but adding that to back numbers does nothing but distracts from consistently.

Our primary sets, some of the best in the league, designed in 1972, doesn't have this unnecessary noise. Name bar, numbers (back and arms) and front crest all have the same consistent trim color.

Again, I think the RR with a single yellow trim around the rear letters and rear numbers, matching the front crest, would look a lot cleaner and consistent...and they could do something similar to the 3rd alternate, though the Blasty crest doesn't have an outline (but could be updated).
