Former dev here, can confirm on occasion it does.

I remember feeling extra powerful when Moonshell for the DS shipped with UTF-8 and UTF-16 support because the developer was japenese and wanted to make sure any language would work.

How to make your code look 'modern' 101

You monster!

Can this really not be fixed?

I still see this in various text that's meant to be readable.

Usually ampersands are the biggest culprit, but is it just a really sacred data type that can't be upgraded to include punctuation, but can include the foreign looking wingdings that try to stand in for it?

I'm just confused on why those characters have multi character reference names that aren't part of the regular alphabet or punctuation set either, but those still show up instead of having room to just remove the erroneous reference with the actual character.

It's 2026, just dig out this fossil and fix it already.
