Numbers are incredibly common in many products - pretty much most computer parts (3080, 4090, z270, 13900k). Should probably always include them in ranking, but not necessarily filtering. Consider "PlayStation 5 games" should prioritize PS5 games, but many PS4 games may also be eligible. What it should not prioritize are $5 PlayStation 1 games.

Many of these challenges are obviated through "advanced" UI with separate fields for things like min/max price, though that's not available in text-only mediums.
