Also called Lining Figures, this property is a lot more common than “duplexed” alphabetical glyphs — even if they are not the default, most text fonts now support them as an opentype feature.
My understanding is that the term “lining” refers to numbers with the same height, (which is also common and appreciated in data tables!) and that “tabular” refers to numbers with the same width, so not quite the same thing: https://creativepro.com/typetalk-know-your-figures/
