Gravity turned Geek Park’s old article from 2016:

On the basis of Apple, we can go further. You can also try using right-angled quotes “” instead of rounded quotes “”, which we think further enhances the aesthetics. It should be noted that adding spaces or using right-angled quotation marks has nothing to do with “correctness”. This behavior only represents an editor’s pursuit of “the beauty of typesetting.”

Perhaps right-angle quotation marks do not matter whether it is correct or not, but manually adding spaces between Chinese and Spanish is a clear wrong approach. Many people have said this. Adding spaces is a temporary solution, but should not be left to the writer. Starting from version 13, iOS has automatically maintained a space of 1/8 character width between Chinese and Western text – whether you manually add spaces or not. However, since other systems have not yet done this, I still add spaces manually. It’s also a reminder of the complexity of the world, and sometimes there are reasons for doing the wrong things.
