Yeah this is my feelings also. Normally I'd just get my own name (jersey foul?) and a significant number i.e. I have several football jerseys that were given to me with milestone ages (21, 30) my soccer shirts all have numbers 4 or 5 as that was my own number when I played. My first Sabres Jersey has 18 on it as I only started following the sabres in 2018. The 50th top is pretty special, deserves a nameplate and number imo.
