The accidental crap can go a long way. I recall someone using a superscript ‘O’ as a degrees symbol in a medical report. This then got converted to a non—superscript character and rather changed the meaning. Extra unhelpful was that they wrote the word ‘degrees’ after the attempt at the symbol too.
