Here are few Yoruba alphabets which might not be new to you, so how can you equate G+B with GB even if you claimed it has significant. How significant is significant?
A B D E E F G GB....
This is no different from Welsh:
A B C CH D DD E F FF G NG....
All of those are considered "letters" in the Welsh alphabet. They are all "significant". But that doesn't mean that "ch" and "dd" get encoded as single entities. They write "c" + "h" and "d" + "d".
In Yoruba, you treat "gb" as a letter. That is fine. But you encode it with "g" + "b".
