It should be noted that unicode symbol quality varies pretty widely by font. You also will want a font that renders as many unicode symbols in monospace width as possible.

Having an option is certainly not bad (in my opinion). I am
writing my TLA+ specs with GNU/Emacs and tried to convert the
ASCII symbols to Unicode:
<https://git.sdf.org/bch/tlamode/raw/branch/master/examples/emacs-tlaplus.png>
But most of the time, I still stick to the ASCII representation
(and to view the pretty printed version, I do ‘C-c C-t e’ and
xdvi(1) automatically updates the view on that file).
