The article shows the use of a symbol which is visually similar to a tricolon.

The text says "We find four characters [in Unicode] that look like this: ... “Tricolon” appears in 19th century sources as a name for one type of verse structure found in the bible, so that isn't so helpful. ... So really Unicode was no help to me."

This suggests that the use of "tricolon" in Unicode is not the same as on the keyboard.

The word "tricolon" is otherwise not mentioned, and I don't know what comments you refer to.
