> surely people aren't "using" em dashes deliberately

I've had a "trigger finger" for Alt+0151 on Windows since 2010 at least.



When I worked in company that did content marketing and had a lot of writers, one of the coffee mugs they gave to us had Alt+0151 in it!

Em-Dash was really popular with professional writers.
