No need to feed the troll by actually trying to engage in the discussion,
but just FYI:
Sanskrit is mostly written in Devanagari these days which is also
useful for selling things to people who speak Hindi and other Indian
languages.
Devanagari is what's used for Hindi and a handful of other languages, yes,
but most Indian languages (Gujarati, Punjabi, Bengali, and Tamil just to
name a few) use different scripts.

Not sure if you are referring to the ☃ snowman character or Arctic
region languages like Canadian Aboriginal syllabic writing like ᐲᐦᒑᔨᕽ
which were added to Unicode 8 years after the initial version. I'd guess
that was added from political rather than marketing motives. ☃ was
required since it was present in Japanese character sets.
