gollark: Yes, but I'd only include it if there was another 1 or 2-letter symbol in its code.
gollark: I'm going for including 1-letter element symbols too, as long as there's at least two of them.
gollark: _continues checking 300 dragons for periodic table codes_
gollark: In any case, it still seems really stupid wanting to control what order your dragons are viewed in, to me at least, especially since by default you'd see their chosen sort.
gollark: Byeyeye!
