as in overwhelmingly bad UI :-)

in an ideal world I'd also like a grammar checker. MS word has one.

some nuances still elude me & fail the "that doe not look quite right" test, but are a pain to google

e.g. does a comma go inside or outside of speech mark:
"follow me," or "follow me",

what sort of dash goes in interrupted speech:
"wait-" OR "wait—"

and where should the spaces go in compound dashed phrases like
black- or white-stripes
