[Elecraft] K3 CW to Data and "ES" for ampersand?

[Bob Cunnings]

Do you really want to remap words/abbreviations (like the 2 character
word "es" which is the symbol for the element einsteinium) in this
way? It's quite all right for prosigns like BT and the "..--"
mentioned in the operator's manual, but to me it violates the
principle of "least surprise" - is "es" is a word in other languages
expressed using International Morse?
