I am not sure about the technical details, but would it be possible to 
rename those identifiers with?: (require (rename-in fluent [→ ~>] [→→ 
~~>])) 
I think if you define those arrows as syntax parameters they could be 
renamed, but I don't know whether that is the "right" way to do it in 
racket.
https://docs.racket-lang.org/reference/stxparam.html?q=syntax-parameter

I like the ~> and ~~> arrows they are quite distinct, seems like a good 
default to me.
I think the rackety way would be to have one default name and make them 
rename-able.
Then fluent/unicode would not be necessary, but I also would not be 
bothered by it.

On a technical level I would prefer a solution that does not result in more 
and more code generation for every renamed variant.
