In other words, by at least 5% of the world population. :)

But even just looking at the US English, ~ is often used for
approximation, for the home directory, for equivalence, etc. So,
things like "The cost is ~ $3", "cd to ~ before doing this", "The N
needs a ~ over it", "If we assume x ~ y, then" will all suddenly
become definition lists?

> Term 1 o Definition a blah blah blah blah blah
> Term 2 o Definition b foo bar baz
> Term 3 o Definition c even more blah blah blah

É. O unico problema é o "o" do Portugues, que é um artigo nessa linguagem.

(Our friend "o" is a _word_ in some languages.)
