I never liked this style, it only made sense to me if the punctuation was part of the quote. Otherwise I am adding to it.

Because I'm a freelance writer for places in the US, UK, Ireland and Australia, I'm constantly getting headaches from punctuation rule differences!

Uh-oh! I know I definitely used some periods after quotation marks in certain cases on my Dissertation...I probably looked up British rules for them.

Whenever I see periods and commas outside quotation marks, I always think, “Wow. The person who wrote this is certifiably insane.”

I was taught in US school if what's inside quotes is a title or something in itself, not something someone said or thought, punctuation outside
