There is no issues with lists and strings. "]" clearly ends the list display, and a quote ends a string literal. The problem with numeric literals is that they can contain letters, so it is not clear (for human reader) where the numeric literals ends and the keyword starts. Adding new numeric prefixes or suffixes or new keywords can break existing code.
