Reminds me of the scene in “The Christmas Story”, where Ralphie is daydreaming of having the best written theme in class. His teacher starts writing a bunch of A+++++++++++++++++++++++++++ on the chalkboard and part of the walls.
Never were more sweeter words uttered than when my wife, tired of the phone being tied up on an ISP connection, agreed for us to get cable internet service. I never heard another dial-up modem handshake again!

Maybe the system should allow a superscript number after a single plus sign.
