That's a little excessive, isn't it? I would think that maybe 100
publications by a dozen authors, and evidence of continuing use might be
enough to start serious discussion of encoding it. I mean, I'm within 12
hours of B.S. in Mathematics, and I haven't seen half the symbols in the
Mathematical Operators section outside the standard, much less in a high
school textbook.
