> I can’t stand using a hyphen to mean negative or subtract

I wonder what the difference is. Maybe in unicode one is slightly longer than the other, but at the end of the day, aren't they both just a horizontal line?

In proportional fonts, the minus sign is significantly longer and usually slightly higher and thinner than the hyphen (so it lines up with the horizontal bar of the + sign). If you’re used to it, it looks much better than a hyphen. (Similar to using real quotation marks instead of the straight ones etc.)
