About the string "Smith \& Jones".

According to the documentation,

INSERT INTO thing (name) VALUES ('Smith E'\\'& Jones');

must work.  But it doesn't.  So, double the enclosed quotes:

INSERT INTO thing (name) VALUES ('Smith E''\\''& Jones');

Doesn't.

It works fine, but with a warning, as

INSERT INTO thing (name) VALUES ('Smith \\& Jones');

But it mightn't if I upgrade from 8.2.3.  Deprecated.  Can't risk it.
So 40,000 years from now I'll be on 8.2.3.

Granted, I'm not very bright.  Would appreciate your help.
