Double Dumb Quotes, aren't dumb, they just aren't actually quote marks, they are inch marks. So, using them for quotes could create confusion if they are used nearby actual measurements that actually need foot and inch marks. And it's not a print-only typography rule, it is just proper, general, editorial correctness. An editor worth their snuff would notice the difference too, not just a designer with a typographic bone to pick. The problem is that we've made it far to hard to type actual quotes, and far to easy to type the incorrect ones. Most text writing software these days, even google docs, automatically figures out if you mean inch marks or quotes, but the web has yet too. @Bob Dye: Well, you’re right, the quotes issue isn’t specifically about “legibility” — but it is about clarity.
