When Emacs prints the number, it doesn't know where it came from. So
it just has to do what's possible.
(+ ?0 3) is probably meant to be the character ?3, so what about (+
48 3)?
Deciding when something is a character and when it isn't is
ai-complete. Emacs is well on its way (M-x doctor RET), but just not
quite there, yet.
