Klingon users don't use the script for anything but decorative gifs
on their web sites, so Klingon was rejected. Tengwar users use the
script for more things than half the scripts on the SMP roadmap are
used for. They study manuscripts and write new texts in lots of
languages in them. Nobody does that in Meroitic, now.
