Description
I'm coding some rust in VSCode (WSL), and when I type ::<, as in ecs.fetch::<Point>, it looks like there's a conflict between the :: ligature and the :< ligature, and it's quite ugly.

Research direction
Reproduce ecs.fetch::<Point> in VSCode on Windows, using the reported WSL setup, and compare the ::< rendering with native Linux if available. Investigate the interaction between the :: and :< ligatures; done means the character combination renders cleanly without breaking the existing ligatures.
