# Cautions carried from each entry
# - Care Symbols: Thinning the lines to fit a smaller tag lets dots and crosses clog after washing, and a prohibition gets read as permission.
# - Pictogram System: Drawing each mark as a picture lets stroke and proportion drift, the set stops reading as a system, and meanings swap at a distance.
