Default Punctuation is powerful
An English professor wrote the words:

"A woman without her man is nothing"

on the chalkboard and asked the students
to punctuate it correctly.

All of the males in the class wrote:

"A woman, without her man, is nothing."

All of the females in the class wrote:

"A woman: without her, man is nothing."

Punctuation is powerful

It is very powerful.

A minister having many complaints was deputed by the kind to count the waves of sea. One day he stopped a ship of powerful country because he was facing problem to count the ways. The power country asked the king to allow their shop to travel.

The King Wrote: Roko mat, Jane dena.
When the minister received the letter that was: Roko, mat jane dena.

While making rules, drafting constitution etc punctuation matters a lot.
