“ Imagine going to the pub with a sufferer from square bracket compulsive disorder: “Two pints of Kronenbourg [lager] and a packet of [sea] salt and [balsamic] vinegar crisps, please. Oh, and can I have a dry [house] white [wine], a [Cornish] pasty and a packet of dry roasted [peanuts]? ”
David Marsh in a post to the Guardian’s style blog about the use of square brackets.
