   I am thinking about disabling the wptexturize function because I really don't like how WordPress messes up my punctuation. I will just comment out any filter that uses this function. I guess my question is: Would it be harmful in anyway to the core? What are the disadvantages?

   If you're commenting out the stuff from wp-includes/default-filters.php, no.

   What are the disadvantages?

   You won't have that formatting. (of course, that's an advantage, until you actually *want* it ;) )

   You could do it in your theme, by adding this:

   remove_filter('the_content', 'wptexturize');

   to your functions.php file (which you might have to make).
