  "textContent": "You’re right about the issues with it needing to be `Copy` and I was sloppy not including the placeholder variable, but I’m not sure I follow why it should be `\"a\"..+25` rather than `\"a\"..+26`. If it’s meant to be short for `\"a\"..(\"a\" + 26)` then aside from the fact that\n\n  * this should probably be characters rather than strings (as one of the other responses points out), and\n  * this doesn’t mean anything at all under the syntax sugar proposal, which was kinda the point of suggesting it (namely: keep it limited to the things which make unambiguous sense with the syntax),\n\n\n\nI think it should be +26 and not +25 since `..` is an exclusive range so the number is the length of the range and `'a' + 26` is the character after `'z'` as it should be.",
