I was able to discover that link by opening the page, highlighting the
section header with my mouse, then clicking the pilcrow.  That gives
me the anchor link to that section header.

Useless and really ugly.

Jim, when you say 'useless', please qualify as 'useless to me'. Otherwise, people may think that you mean 'useless to eveyone', and it is disrespectful to mislead people that way. I hope you are aware that your personal ideas of usefulness to yourself are quite different from other peoples' ideas of usefulness to themselves.

I now understand that you consider the FSR useless *to you* because you do not care about the bugginess of narrow builds or about the spacious of wide builds. You do care about uniformity of character size across all strings, and FSR lacks that. You are entitled to make that judgment for yourself. You are not entitled to sabotage others by projecting you personal judgments onto others. The FSR and pilcrow are definitely useful to other people as they judge personal usefulness for themselves.

PS. I agree that the pilcrow appearing and disappearing is not pretty when I am not looking to use it. I happen to think that is it tolerable because it is sometimes useful.
