    Ok. You can physically type them I concede, but normal humans don’t use them. Still a sign.

    I would bet that the amount of non proof writers that uses em dashes goes up just because people see that it’s associated with ai and want to be funny.

        Yah but your user name is “LanguageIsCool” and you talk about the fun levels of various types of punctuation. You are definitely the outlier here. A cool outlier but an outlier none the less.
