What's the part number for Oxford commas? Was Oxford the OEM?

Just use the Dollar store commas....they are just fine. And if you are short some ellipsis for spacing, cut the tails off the commas.

Cutting the tails off the Dollar Store commas goes really slowly with a Dremel. I'd like to use an angle grinder, but I need a proper literary device to hold them.

Just avoid the URO commas, they're the worst. They can't even hold a phrase without splitting.

Well said by the OP and everyone else. Thanks for being a great community, great moderators, and a great host that is Matthew. I'm confident that the info on this forum will get my new-to-me 200k mi V70 in good shape when no other mechanic would even bother.
