I also prefer that and in fact I enable "visible whitespace" in every text editor that supports it, such as VS Code.

I love that better! I was also just in Italy recently and you made me double take this tablet hanging on a canopy in one of the peregrination churches and they ARE interpuncts but for names only

This is still the standard in setting Ethiopic text
Nowadays I only see/use the middle dot to cla⸱ri⸱fy syl⸱la⸱bles in lyr⸱ics.
