ClickHouse doesn't recognize the Unicode minus sign (−, U+2212) as a mathematical operator. Instead of parsing it as a minus, treat everything from the Unicode minus to the end of line or semicolon as a comment. This matches ClickHouse's behavior where SELECT 1 − 2 produces just Literal UInt64_1 in the EXPLAIN AST output.
