Bear in mind that it is now impossible to produce a single TrueType font 
cover all of Unicode.

In any event, what do people perceive as being the advantage of having a 
single font that covers the whole standard as opposed to a small suite 
of fonts that cover it?

(I'm also speaking from a prejudiced position, because Apple's font 
fallback mechanism makes it unnecessary to explicitly set the font for a 
particular character in order to see it.)
