How do you feel about the Tironian Sign Capital Et? https://www.unicodecharacter.org/U+2E52

I mean the triple-em-dash has been around since Unicode 6.1; The Tironian Sign Capital Et wasn't added until Unicode 13.

Would like to see how this looked handwritten.

I do miss the old PHP manuals on Hurricaine Electric with the comment sections where anyone could discuss every function, ask stupid questions, and post totally bogus answers, which everyone would then believe without skepticism, then copy and paste into their code in production.

It was like pre-AI poor man's artisnal LLM hallucinations.

There need to be chat discussions like that for every unicode character.
