      Unicode support in your coding language is great right up until someone accidentally inserts a lookalike character or closing quotation mark somewhere (phone keyboards and accessibility tools do this a lot). The code will look correct but fail to compile, and it can be a nightmare to debug if you don’t know to look for it.
