Subject: [PATCH] fix: Word's hollow bullet is the letter it is
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

A Courier New "o" was mapped to ◦ for looks. LibreOffice and Word both
draw the glyph the numbering names, so the nested lists of the gravity
summary now read like theirs.
