 * i am used `'-'` title separator but source code `'-`‘ is `& #8211;`
 * _Moderator note: put the space after the ampersand so you can see it._

 * Hi there!
 * It’s good to see you have a keen eye 😀 Not many people can spot the slight difference
   between a dash and a hyphen.
 * Now, we’re aware of this issue, and it’s because we texturize the title for proper
   lossless character escaping. After careful consideration of the security overhead
   fixing this has, we decided to remove the hyphen option altogether in the next
   update (TSF v4.0.0).
 * All users now using the hyphen option will be migrated to use the endash:
    `-
   > –`.
 * For background information and links to in-depth discussions around this issue,
   please see this: [https://github.com/sybrew/the-seo-framework/issues/400](https://github.com/sybrew/the-seo-framework/issues/400)
 * Cheers!
