--- Comment #12 from Lee <[email protected]> ---
I don't agree to close this as a "not a bug". It is a bug -- or if you'd prefer
to call it a feature request. A feature request to make auto-correct more aware
of its environment.

This specific "collision" is not aware of the scenario in which it's being
called. It's only natural that auto-correct should wait for a period, comma,
colon, semi-colon or space to be typed after a possible fraction and ONLY THEN
auto-convert to fraction. But when you type another slash, why convert it? I
don't know of any such case when you would type: "I have 1/2/30 kilograms of
apples" -- and properly expect Libre to auto-correct the 1/2 with a fraction.

Thank you for your time.
