It may be worth to think about whether the Unicode standard should

recommendation is based on the definition of UTF-8 at that time (and
still in force), and not at based on a historical definition of UTF-8.
The link provided about the PRI doesn't lead to the comments.
Is there any evidence that there was a realization that the language
being adopted would lead to overlongs being split into multiple subparts?
