Where 2716 fits
Why 2716 is special
Its quartz window is why old circuit boards have chips with a sticker over them: without the sticker, ambient ultraviolet slowly erased the program.

In historical numeral systems
Egyptian
2 lotuses, 7 coils of rope, 1 hobble, 6 strokes
2 × 1,000 + 7 × 100 + 1 × 10 + 6 × 1 = 2,716. The signs are simply repeated and added; where they sit on the line is a matter of layout, not value.
Babylonian
4 corner wedges + 5 vertical wedges (sixties place), 1 corner wedge + 6 vertical wedges (units place)
45 × 60 + 16 = 2716. Places are separated by a space on the tablet, with the higher place written first.
Systems that simply cannot reach this value are left out. Where a script needs a font most readers do not have, the reading is given instead of the glyphs — see number systems for each system in full.

Strength 0.50, confidence "high".
Technology & computing
The 2716 stores 16 kilobits and is erased by exposure to ultraviolet light through a quartz window, then reprogrammed electrically. Windows were covered with opaque labels to prevent accidental erasure.
