A small note, many systems (including mine) won't be able to display the shovel emoji. You may have to load a web font that supports Unicode 16.0 (like https://fonts.google.com/noto/specimen/Noto+Emoji ) or embed an image instead.

Thanks for flagging! I swapped to inline Noto Color Emoji rendering for all the emojis in the piece. Let me know if you still see issues.

If the overlapping handles turn out to be a problem you could also consider using a different theme (or customizing the current one to offset them).

I don't think it's a serious issue for this piece, so leaving as-is. You're right in your note on the input range notebook that you can always grab the small sliver of the lower handle if needed.

I just published a new version. After you update the import you can pass the option `collide: false` to allow handles to be dragged past each other.

Amazing — thanks for pushing that update so quickly.
