Aaaah, he's got carriage return and enter mixed up. The whole reason for the symbol being an arrow returning to the beginning of the line, is because it's the return key. I love the Canadian enter symbol, an arrow pointing into a box.

Enter appropriated the same “arrow returning” symbol long ago, and the key is colloquially known more often as Enter these days.
