Numeric keypad is flaky? Intentional?

MacOS: Sequoia/15.6, Apple full-size/101-ish keyboard, Fusion: 2604.1.48 arm64 [Native]

I like to use Ctrl+4 and Ctrl+7 to go back and forth between wireframe and shaded rendering. When using the row of number keys above the letter keys, it works every time. When using the numeric keypad, on the other hand, it only works about 50% of the time. It's not a flaky keyboard -- I've dug into that already. It's also not a fat-finger -- when it's not working, I can sit there and hit Ctrl+[4/7] over and over and over and it will never work.

I just can't figure out what the rhyme or reason of why these shortcuts sometimes don't work on the keypad. Is it a certain UI mode where it doesn't work?

Apple support suggests turning off the number lock.

It's off, all the time.
