Alt+ right arrow?

I use the alt- left & alt-right arrow combination quite a lot, and have been wondering why alt-right arrow adds extra digits if needed, but alt-left arrow does not?
I often find I need to add another digit on the left (10's, 100's etc) and it would be good (for me anyway) to have both left & right adding the extra digit(s).

Am I missing something, or is that just the way it is?
