Yes, yes, of course I am!
Yep, custom fonts to fix this issue everywhere.
This thin space is one of those rules I watch it like a hawk, like...
The wrong apostrophe in a shortened word/year:
- ✗ Go Get ‘Em, Team of ‘09
- ✓ Go Get ’Em, Team of ’09
or
wrong character for feet/inches:
- ✗ I was 5’11” after standing with my back straight.
- ✓ I was 5′11″ after standing with my back straight.
or
missing italics for variables:
or accidentally using italics for functions or Units:
- ✗ sin(x) = 2km
- ✓ sin(x) = 2 km
or italicizing their molecules in chemistry:
- ✗ H_2O + CO_2
- ✓ H_2O + CO_2
If I spot such a thing wrong/missing, I know
exactly who to blame.
And then I think... if they messed up the little stuff, what OTHER things did they botch? I can't trust one thing coming out of this book! A missing thin space between the quotes? THE HORROR!!!

So, do yourself a favor and always use correct punctuation + italics!
You wouldn't want the world to go spinning off its axis and into the sun... or would you?
