Three years ago (25 Nov. 2019), I tweeted one of my favourite revelations about glottal stops:
Let's take a moment to appreciate that there are two different vertical lines, which can represent the glottal stop /ʔ/, and they both have descriptive, diminutive names. I don't know which is cuter: the “little stick” (palochka, ⟨ӏ⟩ ) or the “little skip” (saltillo, ⟨ꞌ⟩ ).

Inspired by @kbmcgowan:
If I were queen of #phonetics for a day, I would remove #GlottalStop from the plosive row of the IPA chart. We could just put it it in the chaotic "Other Symbols" category and call it "glottalization segment" until we convincingly figure out what the damn thing actually is.
