Well, yes people do say that. However when talking about area codes, if you want to represent the telephone dial, alpha "o" is on the 6 key.
If you want to stretch the point, 202 could also have B or C as the first or 3rd character. When you're working with multiple variables and can
contort enough to say the middle digit in an area code could represent the letter "o" when you're not referencing the corresponding number 6, then
you're stretching enough to make the rules flexible enough to be irrelevant.
It's what you make it. If it makes sense to you, great. To many of us, it makes as much sese as seeing animal shapes in clouds or significance to
tea leaves in the bottom of a cup.
I'm open minded enough to read it, but once zero equals the letter "o" because some people say "oh" for zero, you've lost me. If the area code
for DC was 262, you could build at least a rudimentary case for it being equivalent to BOB. But 202? No, that's not BOB. Maybe CzeroB or AzeroC,
but not Bob. Way too many contortions to be relevant. To me.
And as someone said, you can either see that, or you can't.
