Are we not here to teach others, and share that knowledge we've learned with others who may not yet have the experience?

Which is exactly why I objected to the reasoning that lead to suggesting another delimiter. It's a good thing to be consistent, and use standards, be them mandatory, de facto, or evolved. It's also good to deviate from the standard if there are good reasons for it. It's not good to pretend that subjective reasons are authoritive. I don't care if someone prefers using hashes or commas over forward slashes when delimiting regexes that don't use forward slashes themselves. But I do object by suggesting the use of a de facto standard obfuscates.
