People really are still using a • rather than auto-formatted bullets everywhere. Same can be said for manually numbering shit.
I can't tell you the number of times I've had to remove a • and the manual indenting.
It's painful. WHY DO YOU DO THIS???
#$%^!!

Could be they copied from another place? It's really annoying to pull text from a bullet list in a pdf and then correct all the formatting.

I often correct formatting for like 15 minutes in other people's documents. It's inexcusable.

This is low on the scale of the bullshit that I have to deal with... Tables made with tabs and spaces... that need to be edited -- which screws up all of that painfully created manual formatting. It makes me want to weep. And that isn't even the worst of it.

When I do it it's usually because the automatic stuff gets it wrong often enough to annoy me

Like when my students tap enter twice at the end of each sentence instead of using formatting tools to double space…
