I really, really, hate when editors and IDEs do that, and switch off every
variant of it I can find in the settings. Either it will get it wrong
because I'm editing code not writing from scratch; or it will get it right
but I'll type the punctuation myself before I notice that; in both cases,
it takes _more_ effort to type with that feature than without it.


As far as the UK keyboard layout's concerned, all four of the options in
this week's list use buttons to the right of the letters, although #[] is
the only one that doesn't need any use of shift. Which mostly just goes to
show that pretty much any punctuation will be hard to type on some layouts
and easy on others.
