Many of the very low codepoints are defned for compatibility reasons (e.g. all the accented characters, which can all be represented as the base letter + combining diacritics). Of course a fraktur font may decide to represent all s except the ending-s as long-s (where "ending" may be in the middle of concatenated words).
