\d and 0-9 are not equivalent - you sure of that ?

From Using character classes we see:

\d is a digit and represents 1. 0-9

A user level that continues to overstate my experience :-))

    \d matches a digit. There are more digits than 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. 

    $ perl -Mcharnames=:full -le'print "\N{BENGALI DIGIT ZERO}" =~ /^\d\z/
+ || 0'
1

    The same thing, written differently: 

    $ perl -le'print chr(0x09E6) =~ /^\d\z/ || 0'
1
