After following the suggestions here How to stop Mac to convert typing double dash to emdash? and disabling Smart quotes and dashes and even replacing the text of -- to --, when I try to type a double dash, it automatically gets replaced by a long single dash. Even more dashes than two are getting replaced by a long single dash of the corresponding length.

e.g.

-- automatically translates to ,

------ automatically translates to ——————

Also this happens system-wide, at all apps, with a few exceptions (like when writing a URL at a browser). Is there a way to get rid of that behavior?

The current version of OS X is Mojave 10.14.6.
