What I have ended up settling on is using the unicode for a "horizontal bar" character every time I would use an em dash and using a "figure dash" character every time I would use an en dash. They are functionally identical. Now you know. (https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/U+2015) ... (https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/U+2012)

Experimenting with my en-dash/em-dash problem... I am dead-set on using this font, but for inscrutable, possibly European reasons(?), the n-dashes are longer and the m-dashes are shorter. CSS provides surprisingly sparse soutions to alter individual character width. I can use transform:scale(x,y), (sketchy), make every dash a different font (stupid), or just fold and use javascript (I don't want to).

I made a goofy little lightswitch for the easist possible CSS inverting light-mode/dark-mode. It doesn't persist between pages, so it's not really useful for much besides reading something long, but... I had fun.
