11.27.1.3 Capitalisation of ligatures using \uppercase

https://tex.stackexchange.com/landing/r/digest?cta=question&id=741266

Is there a way to force the \oe ligature to switch to \OE within an \uppercase ?  I do not want to type Ao\223 and have it capitalised to Ao\222, but rather have \oe interpreted as \OE within an \uppercase.

https://tex.stackexchange.com/landing/r/digest?cta=question&id=741078

I am making arrays of numbers. How can I align them automatically by the ones digit? 
I understand that this won't work for arrays with math expressions in them, but I think it would be more legible ...

https://tex.stackexchange.com/landing/r/digest?cta=question&id=741405
