Find = .[0-9]%
Replace = ^s^&
Find = ([0-9])^s(.[0-9]%)
Replace = \1\2
This will now leave you with the .0%s with a non-breaking space before them, so you can then do a wildcard Find for just those, with:
Find = ^s.[0-9]%

I also tested the find logic on a blank word document with just these four plain text values (no formatting, no table, etc.) and it didn't find any of them
I tested the [!0-9].[0-9]% wildcard Find expression in an ordinary document before I posted it. It worked then and it still does.
