Ask a Kuwaiti secondary student what calculator they need and this model number comes back more often than any other: it is what teachers demonstrate on the board and what worked examples in the textbook are written around. Fractions, surds and standard form appear the way they are printed in the book rather than flattened into a single line, so a student checking their working sees the same shapes on screen and on the page. That familiarity is the whole point.
