[Asmus Freytag]

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TI_calculator_character_sets 
the "negation" is mapped to U+207B SUPERSCRIPT MINUS in TI Character 
sets. Unless that information is definitely incorrect, this should be 
the end of discussion.

Remember the bit about interoperability: with what external systems would this character interoperate?
