Yes, good example. On the other hand, emojis seem pretty popular, and many programming languages do support non-ascii symbols in identifiers. We just don’t use them much for actual code. Along with markdown, there’s also increasing support for math equations in forums and blogging software. |

Math symbols are a better example, but also extremely well established, and it's still taken a very long time to get widespread support, and it's still far from universal.
But note that non-ASCII symbols etc. was an example of the difficulty of even getting support for something "that simple". Now try to take the step up to e.g a node-based editor.
