don't know why it floored me so to find others like me out there interested in this shit (even to this day), but millions of them???
in hi-skool spent all my free time better part of a year down this rabbit hole, doodling thru all the letters/symbols/possibilities.
thankfully the release of the TIL311 put an end to that madness with the brilliantly simple innovation of separating out the vertices from the segments.
Something even in the video the author comes close to but hasn't yet stumbled upon, if someone cares to pass that along to him.

i swear there used to be a nixie-tube thread that doesn't seem to exist anymore.
guess i'll extend this thread, make it more inclusive.
