I am not sure whether I am more numerate, but thanks anyway for the new (to
me) English adjective. I'll use it on the next occasion.

Change "Unicode" in, e.g., "UTF-16". UTF-8 is as standard Unicode as 16-bit
representations.

Change "Plus/minus" in "PLUS-MINUS SIGN": Unicode names are normative
properties.

Change "26D6" in "266D".
Change "flat" in "MUSIC FLAT SIGN".
Better using the U+ prefix presenting Unicode scalar values (e.g. "U+00B1"),
and showing octet boundaries in UTF-8 (e.g. "C2,B1"). These conventions
enhance readability.
The UTF-8 values are all correct, as far as I can see.
