Unnecessary. Why would you do extra work to communicate your writing?

Z’s only. Started doing it in high school algebra to keep z’s and 2’s separate.
Same. Also used the dot to indicate multiplication instead of an x for the same reason.

In the Navy we always put a diagonal slash through the zero.

I started dashing my zeros because my handwriting is truly horrible. Im grateful for the keyboard. Had I known how powerful a tool it is, Id have learned to type in high school.

7’s and z’s always, occasionally Zeros depending on the usage.

No. I was taught the right way to write 7s.

A slash through a zero prevents confusion with an oh.
But being American, I see little use in adding extra slashes on other characters as though I were German.

Only 7’s get a dash from me.
