Have you ever tried to spell anything to someone in
English? Especially over the telephone. Say, for
example, "bat".

You: "b, a, t".
Me: "Was that "p"?
You: "No, b as in boy, a as in apple, t as is top."

The problem, especially if there's background noise of
some sort, is that the consonants are easily confused.
I don't think I've ever had a problem with numbers,
though as someone mentioned nine and five have similar
vowels. The f and v are enough to distinguish them for
the most part, though.

With your system I can see this:

Me: My number is no no mo fo vo...
You: Wait, was that no or mo?
