Still, pronouns may be universal, but their features aren't... Pronouns
in Japanese are not a closed class, and it is not uncommon to use a
person's name/title instead of "you". Happens in English and other

I think Blissymbols could be a separate, well-defined script in Unicode
because they are already more or less well defined by their respective
groups. This community of interest can lobby for these implementations as a
whole instead of multiple individuals separately.

You make a confusion: I do not propose "hacking" existing codes, but
instead adding new codes for private variations. It's then up to PUV
sequence authors to choose an appropropriate base character that can have
the properties they want to be inherited by the private-use variation
sequence, or to
