>> shouldn't it be "#8208" instead of "8209"

No!  As your quote notes, &#8209 is the nonbreaking hyphen character, which
*is* what is needed here!  That is a hyphen which is *always* displayed but
*never* breaks.

A soft-hypehn is one at an optional break which is only displayed if the break
occurs, while a hard-hyphen is one which is always displayed even if there is
no break - but a break is allowed.  So both of these allow breaks.  The whole
point of a non-break hyphen is to prevent breaking, while still displaying a
hyphen
