One could put a tinfoil hat on and argue that it was a deliberate move precisely to force people onto platforms that collaborate with 3 letter agencies.

Personally when I tried both (I used a dozen of different terminal emulators to test them out and see which one I like the best) it boiled down to the fact that I had some test file for Unicode characters that Kitty (and I believe Sakura?)

I believe he's trying to print the 0..9 range by providing the proper start and end point for those characters but instead gets 9..0 (I don't know the script but I'm basing it off by the 0 at the end). So for instance 0x07c0

You could probably embed images in language comments as base64 and then have a plugin for your favorite text editor that renders those (which would probably be easily achievable with Electron-based editors, not so much in others). Even then
