That is almost precisely what I said. You repeated it perfectly. Thanks.
But actually, there is one small difference between what I said and what
you said. I merely /observed/ that no characters have different non-null
values for the various number-related properties. But you state
(emphasis on *cannot*) that this is guaranteed. Please confirm - is
there a hard-coded /guarantee/ that no character will ever be added in
the future for which the various number-related properties will have
different non-null values? Such a guarantee would be useful, as it would
allow me to do more optimisation of stored data.
