EDIT The following only takes # 4
Responsible for the content are experts.
@chaot compiles and edits the whole bunch to an EPUB - available
free of charge to everybody. I will not even ask for donations!
By the way that work will make me also to a (little) expert, for editing EPUBs and Regexes.

Or do you think that "regular expressions" are little known? If so, really?

Yes, really! Just go to the street and ask some passers-by. I'll bet with you: Until you find someone who knows about, you're half starved and thirsty. Except you live in somewhere like Silicon Valley.
You will think these passers-by are not interested anyway: Yes, the most not. The rest, however, the information acquisition on the Internet will be too inconvenient, to buy a corresponding book too expensive. So much interest does not exist. But the free EPUB for the socalled john (english loo), that's exactly what they need, I guess.

How hard would it have been to say: "I ran the Smarten Punctuation tool and saw these results. I don't think this is correct."

Not so hard! Only 4 times as many letters, about.
That's not the point. Unfortunately, MobileRead suppresses quotes in the repeating citation.

Otherwise people would be raising bug reports because things like two hyphens together did not get converted to an emdash. Unfortunately, you have a situation where the double-hyphen isn't supposed to be smartened, but that is probably rare.

The rare things are that make us happy.
Diap's Editing Toolbag: I will try and report. But not today!
And then a new question arises. Punctuation rules are probably different depending on the language. This should be considered, possibly pointed out.
