Hi,

I was checking which changes had been landed to the main branch as the 
result of Ihor's work and I noticed a commit unrelated to my initial 
curiosity but that might be questionable:

Should it be "\textminus" instead? I never used it but my expectation 
that it was added for text mode outside of equations: \minus1. It 
required \usepackage{textcomp} in the past, but it seems it is not the 
issue any more, so the symbol is available out of the box. I was not 
following that changes in LaTeX so I may miss something.
