How to configure TM-Penalty/Deduction when a segment contains a number?

Hi Community,

It has come to my attention that Trados often struggles with segments that contains numbers, and fills target segments as Context Matches but with wrong numbers.

If I don't pay attention, then I oversee the segment marked as Context Match and confirm it with the possibility that the numbers differ from the source text.

Screenshot of Trados Studio interface showing a segment comparison with a potential issue. Source text in German mentions '16 Franken (2024)' while target text in French incorrectly matches with '11 francs pour l'annee 2025'. The segment is marked as a Context Match (CM) with a green background, indicating a potential oversight in number translation.

Is there a way to configure some sort of penalty, or deduction, that any segment from my TM that contains a number should have like a 5 or 10% match deduction?

This would help me, as I pay more attention to segments that are not 100% or Context Matches, while I tend to overlook 100% and Context Matches and confirm them immediately - this helps me to be more efficient with my time.
