[issue12056] "…" (HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS) should be an alternative syntax for "..." (FULL STOP FULL STOP FULL STOP)

[Xavier Morel]

Xavier Morel <xavier.morel at masklinn.net> added the comment:

> But if we allow for ellipsis, then would we not also have to start allowing characters like ≥ and ≤ in Python?

No, they're not defined as canonically equivalent to >= and <= by the Unicode specification:

    >>> unicodedata.normalize('NFKD', '…')
    ...
    >>> unicodedata.normalize('NFKD', '≤')
    ≤
