#parentheticals

No. Something I think those who say that forget is that there's people who need screen readers. Why do I say this? Because screen readers don't read out parentheticals, they completely ignore parentheticals.

Screen readers though read out Slashes.

Parentheticals are already can be convoluted when used in place of tone tags but that mixed with screen readers not acknowledging them makes things extremely difficult to understand and nonsensical. Mostly difficult to understand because people really like to put the parentheticals in the middle of sentences.

This makes tone indicators a more inclusive and better choice as it allows those that need screen readers to properly read it.

it's been months but ,,, I did put a recap in the authors note bc I Also forgot what happened LOL
