You've trimmed the context I was referring to. But you said:

But there are no trailing new lines.. guaranteed by: [example snipped]
which looks like a statement and not a question to me. And it is a
statement which is correct (subject to above nitpick). You should have
more confidence in yourself to read and understand the docs!

OK, have it your way then, but I was (implicitly) asking John K, if he
had other reasons.  Thinking there might well be other reasons.

Because /\A\d+\z/ has less ambiguity then /^\d+$/.
