AFAIK, surrogates are not exclusively for private use. There will also
be
"dead" languages, additional Han characters and symbols in the extra
planes.

> Q17. Is Unicode big endian or little endian?

> A17. Network byte ordering (most significant byte first or big-endian) is
                                      ^                          ^
                                      |                          |
Isn't this a conflict? Doesn't big-endian mean, the most significant
byte
comes last?

Sorry, if I'm plainly wrong
