UTC and WG2 apparently decided that some degree of compatibility with
this relatively new (1997) DPRK standard could be sacrificed. The
horizontal-bar fractions can be mapped to the existing Unicode
fractions, and the only thing lost in round-tripping is the exact glyph
shape. Likewise the emphasized name syllables; the only loss of
information is the emphasis, not the plain-text identity of the
syllables.
