That’s an interesting snippet — it really plays with how Java handles Unicode escapes before tokenising the code. The \u sequences get converted into actual characters like newlines and comment delimiters before compilation, which makes the # lines fall inside a comment block. Feels like one of those language quirks that’s both clever and confusing at once.
