(has anyone even said you were wrong about your claims regarding the history and usage of the letters? I might have missed it. but you're spending all this effort trying to convince people, and it isn't even really really contested.)
For someone who call me fanatic, well he may call me lunatic as well. For them I can only say that “ Someone can be awakened up only if he is asleep, but not if he is pretending to be asleep ; so keep sleeping (??) tight”
It doesn't even matter if you're a fanatic. There is a glaring mistake in the nomenclature of Unicode. There are, in fact, quite a few such mistakes. There will be more, I am sure, in the future. Nobody is "asleep" to that, we all know and acknowledge it. You should acknowledge it too, and move on as the rest of us have.
There really isn't anything to discuss on this thread, is there? Do you want us to agree with you? Then we do, or I do anyway: there is a big mistake in the naming. It happens that this mistake, like so many others, will not be fixed. Can we stop harping on it now?
