Answer 3

I don't know, why similar rule exists. I don't like googling, but one good reason could be that programming languages want to allow numbers to have characters in it.

You are atleast allowed to include characters b, e, o, x in numbers:
b: binary representation
e: 10th exponent representation
o: octal representation
x: hex representation

If you were allowed to start variables with digits, then these representations or variable usage should be changed, because how could you know whether 0b1 is a variable or an integer in binary representation?
