But even those should be hyphenated at the end of line, just treat them like soft hyphens that are there for a possible hyphenation. With the difference that they show the hyphen even in the middle of the line. Things that should never be hyphenated at the end of line, such as 3-D, should render with a hyphen, but inability to split up at the end a line. I believe that using a dash instead is a poor way to force non-hyphenation.
Edit: really funny, MR did split up your fruit-bearing as fruit-
bearing in my quote as it should. Depending on screen size.
