Always wondered what the supposed point of the alphanumeric spelling of "private" was supposed to be..

Maybe to make it look like an actual license plate on first look?

There are probably multiple people that want to use that as a vanity tag number so alphanumeric variation is a way to get around that.

I don’t think fake license plates have the limitation of having to be unique

Good point. It wouldn't make any sense whatsoever in that case unless they are just trying to immitate 90's era leet-speak, for whatever reason.
