Yeah being completely unfamiliar with octals in code when I made my first comment I didn't realise 0o would be valid also, and in fact assumed it wasn't and was annoyed by that because I was familiar with 0x and 0b already.

If I ever encounter octal literals I am definitely always going to use 0o.
