Every Base Is Base 10
The numerical system paradox strikes again! The question asks what base has 10 digits in base 10, and the answer distribution is pure mathematical chaos. The trick is that any number system represents its own base as "10" - binary (base 2) writes 2 as "10", octal (base 8) writes 8 as "10", etc. So technically, every base is "base 10" when written in its own number system! The frustrated middle character screaming "no!!! it's two!!!" gets it but can't handle the semantic trickery, while the chill characters on both ends are just vibing with "it's ten" - both correct in their own way. It's the perfect trap for the pedantic programmer who lives in the binary world but has to interface with humans.
