Description

So in order to make progress with this my suggestion is ...

  1. Let's get rid of all of the prompt symbols in the guide
  2. Open an issue to handle script blocks with css/js styling. I think we should add a prompt but as part of presentation and once you select text that part is not selected.

Research direction

Review the guide sections containing script blocks and the presentation discussion from PR #460, then inspect how prompt symbols are currently rendered and selected. Done means prompts appear as presentation-only styling in script blocks and are excluded when readers select the code.
