The non-use of Gurmukhi digits?

[DavidHaslam]

A search for the regexp [\x{0A66}-\x{0A6F}] gave no hits, showing that no use is made of Gurmukhi digits.

i.e. All scripture references in parallel passage markers and book introductions use ordinary Western digits for chapter and verse numbers and the numerical part of some book names.

Even so, this prompts the question:

Why not use the Gurmukhi digits in the Punjabi Bible ?

The present generation (especially the youth) uses the western digits and no longer use Gurmukhi digits.

Thanks.
