Numbers or no numbers?

I've been watching some people play osu and sometimes I see people play with no numbers in their hitcircles and I honestly don't know why. Can someone list the pros and cons of having numbers vs no numbers?

I would assume that it's just their personal preference.

It also takes "work" to remove the numbers (I would also assume there is a very simple way of doing so).

As for an actual answer to this, it's personnal preferences. I think it's like "why do I need numbers if I don't even care about them anyway". This is often matched with a lack of combo colors or even follow points, because they just aim for the dot instead. The difference is mostly reading in my opinion.

So because you wanted a pro and con :
Pros
  1. No useless distractions.
  2. All circles are now the same, making it easier to react to them and;
  3. to hit them since they all have the same thing to aim for (usually a dot in the middle).
  4. It's less ugly

Cons
  1. With the lack of a sequence, high density like low ar are harder to read.
  2. All circles are "unique" (ignore 1-2 for now) so they can be identified easier.
  3. It's also less ugly.
