> Contractions _always_ use an apostrophe
Are you really gonna say that? Are you sure you don't wanna reconsider? That's kinda sorta not true, I've gotta say, especially what with Halloween coming up soon.
> For "it", the apostrophe alone serves to distinguish between the two words.
Sure, but that doesn't establish which to drop it from. English coulda just as well dropped it from the contraction.
