> How would syntax highlighting catch that? Those are valid identifiers!

Author here, you're absolutely right. When I wrote this, I was thinking of some of the more obvious tricks like the alternate semicolon, parens or curlies. I'm gonna edit the article to qualify that, and add a note about maybe using a SwiftLint exclusion rule containing all these unicode characters.

Thanks for the discussion! :)
