Note also that any integer may be used to the left of that first b,
and any digit or letter may appear to the right -- regardless of the
actual base choosen.

This can be useful.  Then again, silliness is among those uses.

For example, interpreting the initial phrase of Hamlet's soliliquy
as a sentence which we want to convert to J:
   2beornot2be
9780
   2be +. -. 2be
1

Or, whatever else
   2bearthoseills
etc.
