Refinement 1:
S can contain D but cannot contain unescaped S
D can contain S but cannot contain unescaped D

Refinement 2:
for Q in list_of_defined_quote_characters:
    Q can contain non-Q but cannot contain unescaped Q

I'd call that orthogonal and a similarity not a small exception to "no
difference" :-)
