The Arabic language requires some of the characters noted in Form-B (along
with a good portion of U+0600 - U+06FF). Form-A is noted/titled as "Arabic
Presentation Form-A" yet it is not required or used by the "Arabic" _language_
(you can think of Form-A as a derivative list characters that were spawned
from Arabic that other languages are using).
Hope that helps & Salam.
