<p>These would seem to be their decisions, not yours. Type
foundries rip off one another's designs all the time in all sorts
of scripts, but that doesn't affect encodability. Moreover, I
point out again that it's *already being done* by people who are
apparently willing to take the risk even before Unicode encodes
things. They'll probably carry on doing so afterward as well. If
nobody else does, well, that's for the invisible hand of
capitalism to influence.</p>
