:::What's shown in the explanation right now is a G-clef, not a treble-clef; I believe this to be an error. (Also the G-clef symbol doesn't display reliably on mobile.) The symbol 'treble-clef' is only mentioned by name, not shown in the comic; therefore, I think we should show a symbol that is actually ''specifically'' a treble-clef. A clef note only becomes a treble-clef note if the lines are included; otherwise it could mean ''any'' clef note. U+1D11E (π) is specifically a G-clef ''by name'' in its Unicode listing. The Unicode emoji U+1F3BC named 'Musical Score' is defined in Unicode as displaying a staff (or stave) with a clef note laid along the lowest of five horizontal lines, thereby forming a treble-clef. Not only is πΌ (U+1F3BC) a Treble-clef while π (U+1D11E) is ''not'', πΌ displays more universally on mobile than π does. Therefore, I'm going to correct the error. '''Please discuss the issue here if you think π should be used instead.''' | :::What's shown in the explanation right now is a G-clef, not a treble-clef; I believe this to be an error.

The treble clef at the bottom should probably be standardized, not that colorful clip art thing.

::Russian Π is basically a "beck-de-corbin"; but, again, you have to make sure you use Russian "Cyrillic" uppercase symbol Π, not, for.ex., lowercase "Π³". RELEASE!!!
