Languages and scripts are indeed related, but encoding characters or scripts is 
not the same thing as encoding languages. The phrase "text data in any 
language" does not contradict or change this.

CLDR is indeed a project run by the Unicode Consortium, but that project is not 
related to, and does not influence, the naming of characters or blocks in the 
Unicode Standard.

Your concern seems to be about the names given to characters and scripts, not 
to their usability, which at least is a good thing.

If you are still insistent that only the characters used to write the Bengali 
language may have a name that includes the word "Bengali," please re-read and 
respond to the point I and others have tried to make about "Latin." Most of the 
letters with names like "LATIN LETTER ___" are *not* used to write the Latin 
language. There is no "English letter this," "French letter that," and so on. 
This is simply not a problem.
