> Shouldn't asymp actually point to > "asymptotically equal to", Unicode U+2243? It depends if you mean "should" in some idealised world or "should" in a world made complicated by some unfortunate historical accidents:-) http://www.w3.org/Math/characters/ has whole section on asymp... In short the mapping of asymp to 2248 makes no sense, but it's built in to HTML and so built in to every desktop and mobile phone on the planet....
