As long as we are changing things, why not get rid of the order shift as well? Teenty one, teenty two, teenty three, teenty four, etc.

I like this. Not only does it feel right, but it also sounds like they're the smallest, cutest numbers. They're teenty.

The "-ty" already means ten so it makes more sense to say onety-one, onety-two, etc.
