Descriptive Problem Summary:
https://github.com/tgstation/-tg-station/issues/11856
In short, verbs that take an argument as thing in view/oview/range/world/list/etc fail if you attempt to use them on an object whose name starts with a non-letter/number character like ' or '.'
Numbered Steps to Reproduce Problem:
(this will pass on the first item, and fail on the other two)
Run the test-list-handling verb.
Select first item.
Enter.
Repeat for the other two items.
Expected Results:
test1
'test2
.test3
Actual Results:
test1
Sorry, the following is not valid: 'test2
