It's about as hopeless as telling someone that a 2400 bps 201B modem
does not run at 2400 "baud". "Whadya mean--it says 'baud' right
here
in the user's manual..." or, better yet, "My teacher said it was
baud and he's never wrong."
Perhaps we could expunge all traces of Emile Baudot (sort of a USSR
history "correction") and kill two birds with one stone. I'd settle
for "symbol" instead of "baud".

A baudit
teletype? Similar to a normal teletype except it has a
square box with the type heads.
I'm not sure what your asking about. Blind people still use the 5
bit
code for data.
VERY Unlikely to actually be "Baudot"
That was replaced by "Murray" in about 1900, and that was replaced by
ITA (CCITT) before WW2.
