I worked on a project once that included a text to speech feature for reading a certain social network's feed out loud while driving your car. We had two weeks of meetings, email threads, hallway arguments, and passive aggressive snark over how the # should be read, or even if it should be read at all.
You'd be amazed by the rabbit hole of edge cases that stupid little symbol will drag you down.
And god help you when localization joins the party.
