Exactly. And to go back to Hungarians:[1] the alternative to having one large standard for all text is to have multiple encodings for different languages and peoples. And that’s what we did for decades before Unicode which was apparently a mess.
And of course there certainly are Hungarians that also write in Thai. So what about mixed Hungarian/Thai text? Should that be a multiple (interleaved) encoding text? I mean as an alternative to “149,813 ‘characters’” that “any one human is [not] likely to use [most of]”.
