I would like to suggest the name "finished emptiness" for that.

We could simply agree that all symbols, letters, numerals denote
emptiness. This would mean that all posts in this thread are empty.
Perhaps it would be a fitting end to the discussion.

It seems rather perverse to insist that some symbols be replaced by
blanks. We aren't allowed to use whatever symbols we want?
