Ideal sheaf of two closed points (${\mathcal{I}}_{\{P,Q\}}={\mathcal{I}}_P\cap {\mathcal{I}}_Q$)

For distinct closed points over an algebraically closed field, evaluation gives the short exact sequence $0\to {\mathcal{I}}_{\{P,Q\}}\to {\mathcal{O}}_X\to k_P\oplus k_Q\to 0$. If all global regular functions are constant, the long exact sequence in sheaf cohomology embeds $k^2/k(1,1)$ into $H^1(X,{\mathcal{I}}_{\{P,Q\}})$. Thus this ideal detects a concrete obstruction to affineness.
