Stop using “brackets” to mean “braces” (talonhub#1344)
I’ve been tripped up repeatedly by how the vocabulary gives me `{}` when I say “brackets”. In my part of the world, at least, “brackets” are `[]` and “braces” are `{}`. “Square brackets” is a belt-and-suspenders redundancy, like “ATM machine” or “PIN number”. For what it's worth, aegis [agreed with me in Slack](https://talonvoice.slack.com/archives/C7ERD5Q5T/p1703888321381209) that there ought to be only one way to refer to these sorts of things. I looked through [old Issues](https://github.com/talonhub/community/issues?q=is%3Aissue+bracket) and [old PRs](https://github.com/talonhub/community/pulls?q=is%3Apr+bracket) and nothing explicitly said “we choose to mean that ‘brackets’ are either curly or square depending on whether you say ‘square’ first.”
