Stylistic alternative for "1"

[shadoxxhd]

The 1 glyph seems much less "clean" than other digits of this font, due to its significant serifs.

Compared with droid-sans, most of the numbers look very similar, with the exceptions of 0 (FiraCode defaults to a slashed one), 4 (FiraCode is open, which I prefer) and 1 (droid-sans doesn't have any serifs).

Besides my preference for the sans-serif look of the 1 glyph, I also think a sans-serif version would be more distinguishable from similar glyphs (l, i), which all do have serifs.

Would it be possible to add a sans-serif version of the 1 glyph as a character variant? If so, should it become the default due to the distinguishability advantage I mentioned?

Character variant — yes
Default — probably not. 1 without serifs is too narrow
