In addition to the text-to-speech issue mentioned in the article, could the minus sign also screw up actual hyphenation in some reflows? I could see how having multiple hyphens in words, or weird line breaks would be a problem, especially if he didn't just use a lot of hyphenated terms, but took it upon himself to hyphenate at the end of lines, but I don't know if that is actually the case or not.
