      Stop spending your time doing a poor re-implementation of really-sweat-the-details work on a page which ~100% of your revenue comes through.

      We have folks who will care about the edge cases so that you don't have to. Like, say, if you include zenkaku numbers in a credit card form.

      "What's a zenkaku number, Patrick?" If you didn't know this already your checkout form is presently broken, but you SHOULDN'T have to know.

      But for a real answer: in Japanese/Chinese/Korean you can represent a number to take half the width of a character (2) or full width (2)

      Full-width is zenkaku (全角) in Japanese; it is highly likely that every numeric input on your site fails if zenkaku numbers go into it.

      And to add insult to injury if you're doing something like (input ~= /[0-9]/) you are probably telling your users "LOL 123 are not numbers."
