Besides, I also don't see why you still contribute to this thread. For me, you seems not a professional, either. At least, you never wrote any formal academic writing, that's why you don't know there is no such rule or convention in traditional Chinese "high level" academic writing.

You've never seen it in your life? And you still think that scholarly writing style has something to do with formal typography? Your insinuations about my writing background are false, but you're right that I'm not a professional typesetter. Try not to make false red herrings though in order to promote your point, especially when you try to approach it from an "academic" point of view.
