This was going to be my point (roughly).
It's like when you travel and you start to judge gas stations by their bathroom. Anyone who has traveled a lot knows exactly what I mean.
copy/paste worked more reliably 20 years ago than it does today. So much so that I've started judging software based upon their ability to reliably copy/paste. Seems stupid, right? Just like judging gas stations by their bathroom seems stupid to people who rarely go into them because they don't travel.
But it flat out amazes me how bad copy/paste is today.
I once spent _hours_ trying to figure out why a PHP script was shitting all over itself. It turns out I copy/pasted the email text from Monday.com and it copied non-printing characters that caused PHP to fall over.
Thing is, at that point, I was an old hand at that stupid crap, it didn't take me that long to find it. I learned years ago not to trust copy/paste.
