German numbers refuse to line up: area codes run two to five digits and subscriber numbers three to eight, so never validate by counting. The leading zero is a trunk digit dropped after +49. Mobiles live under 015x to 017x, and 00 dials out. Write the area code in brackets and nobody blinks.

An open plan with no fixed length: national numbers run from a handful of digits to eleven or more; mobiles begin 015, 016 or 017.
