variation selectors are within the subset of characters that should never
be permitted in programming identifiers; they could cause surprizing
results such as adding new APIs or backdoors that would not be detected by
code reviewers looking at the code.

This week’s shady character introduces quasiquotation marks, used in
fanzines since at least 1944 for “in substance” quaotation. This mark is
the superposition of (or ') with -.

This looks like a good candidate for unicode
ℕ ⊃ℤ ⊃ℚ ⊃ℝ ⊃ℂ are without doubt more useful and more common in
double-struck styles than in Fraktur styles.
But there are cases where they will be distinctly replaced by bold letters

Aren't they just standard quotes with basic style ? (overstriking with
del or s in HTML)
How are they different to quoting multiple personalities, each one with
their own color (red, green, blue, black for the author, grey for side
remarks...) There are certainly lots of combinations to denote

Fraktur would normally be for Lie algebras. For sets, some other style or none.
And logicians use their own notation.
What about using U+0331 combining macron below or U+0320 combining
minus below? Here are some samples:
U+0331
