You are not prevented from entering string values into this numeric attributes which is why values like "1-High" can be added from Outlook.

There currently is not a way to change the type from numeric, the advantage to the numeric type is that you can search on numeric values or entire string and it will sort appropriately as well depending on whether you enter a leading numeric values or not. The main disadvantage is that you can't add list values for a populated drop-down.
