Basically, I don't object.  Slightly stretching or squeezing the
glyphs horizontally shouldn't be noticeable, I think.

However, have you checked (old) scores from Bärenreiter, Peters, UE,
etc., whether those numerals really have the same width?  I guess that
manually engraved digits have a natural deviation in positioning much
larger than what you demonstrate (using an extreme magnification).
