Description

Two reasons taste and utility.

  1. Taste: "Reason is the slave of passion" - Hume.

So I confess that to me, this is just straight up ugly. Can there be something other than the '#' character? Why not just a keyword

Where "whatever" is a clean word that anyone reading would understand and is also not painful to the eyes.

  1. Utility. There could be a really awesome use of "#" in the future, lets not throw away that opportunity here.
