Due to font size most people I know read it as a % because there is no reason to expect a similar symbol to be anything else. A division by 10 or having an /1000 is much, much more readable. Uncommon notation does nothing hut cause confusion for newer players

How could any hot-blooded male deny such a request under the circumstances.

as a new player I can say that I never noticed there are multiple percent signs in the text
one problem is that the font is too small and I also had UI scale 150%. but the root cause for this definitely is why even use something no player is accustomed to like "‰", from other games you're used to just see 10%, 1%, 0.1% etc.
it literally doesn't add anything to the game to have it say 5‰ instead of 0.5%, it solves the issue of clarity for all players and for new players it removes confusion
