You did not say anything about Normalization. That's more than correct.
But the only reason for not allowing U+06C0 in the standard, is its
cannonical decomposition. That weighs down all other reasoning. BTW, I got
the idea from Unicode. Where else? ;)
You may be correct in all your reasoning, but we are not talking about
technology available at the minute, or using all of one's options, or even
keyboards that can't generate two characters for a single key. We are
talking about interoperable text processing.

They looked liked monologues, because people did not reply to each other
case by case. They posted them like announcements. (I don't have anything
to tell about participation. There are many subscribers that have talked
at the right moment, and there are many others who are just interested in
listening.)

I didn't ask you to finish. I asked you to tell me when you had done all
your reasoning, and there is nothing else remaining on the issue. "When
the dust settles" should have been the proper phrase.

I have read all your posts, and I think they should have been
informational for some of the subscribers. But I am mainly talking about:

Which I replied with:

and again:

You did not reply to any of them. Would you please reply?
