There's ambiguity already. Look at the sign dots 2,3,6: it stands for
opening quote, the word his, and the question mark! We've gotten used to
this ambiguity.
Dot 6 is another example. It stands for the capital sign, dot 6 n is ation
dot 6 y is ally. One symbol for three things!
And dots 3,5,6: closing quote, was and by.
Surely, using dot 3 to represent single quote and apostrophe wouldn't be a
hard change to make.
