Exactly, Unicode should not create its own logic about scripts or numeral systems.
All looks like the encoding of 10 as a pair (ONE+combining TENS) was a severe conceptual error that could have been avoided by NOT encoding "TENS" as combining but as a regular number/digit TEN usable isolately, and forming a contectual ligature with a previous digit from TWO to NINE. The encoding of 10 as (ONE+TENS) is superfluously needing an artificial leading ONE. This is purely an Unicode construction, foreign to the logic of the numeral system. 2016-06-11 9:08 GMT+02:00 Asmus Freytag (c) <[email protected]>: > On 6/10/2016 5:34 PM, Andrew Cunningham wrote: > > There is the logic of how kikakui numbers are encoded in Unicode and there > is the internal logic of the numeral system itself.
