OK, I get that you're probably pacificly inclined, but am I correct in
taking it that you would say $B@oAh;Y1g$KH?BP$9$k(B instead of the above?
And can I take it a step further, and assume that you would prefer ...$B$K(B
$BH?BP$9$k(B in all cases? There are for sure a lot of $B$rH?BP$9$k(B in the
web sites that Google looks at.

I have a vague memory that there was a case of $B$rH?BP$9$k(B in the
textbook we used to use for third-year Japanese (something produced at
ICU, IIRC) that my NS colleagues accepted, and could explain.

I sure wish I could remember things. I can't even remember whether I
used to could or not.
