I'm still unclear how a guideline that says "you can use standard
punctuation, but we prefer correct punctuation" presents a barrier or
confusion.  Wherever punctuation is an issue, within the guideline, we
mention just what that 'better punctuation' is.  We aren't forcing
anyone to learn how to type the characters or know which to use - the
only editors who ever would perhaps have to would be those who decided
to take the task of doing the punctuation-attention work on a master
list.

On the users side, how does the punctuation used present any barriers
whatsoever?

I'm only suggesting applying it to CSG as CSG is the only area of the
site in which we modify the track title, and thus the only place where
this is even an issue.  Elsewhere in the database, yes, I have seen
debates over which asian dot character is actually being used, which
heart symbol is closest, which dash is used, how many spaces (and of
what type) appear between the words/letters on the liner, whether the
Latin characters are normal-width or full-width, etc.  Elsewhere on
the site, we also perfectly allow en-dash, em-dash, and
language-correct quotation marks, if that's what was on the liner; see
for examples just about all soundtracks entered in Japanese or Korean.
