I say Greek just so people will know what the symbol looks like.

The small lamda with stroke is also used in this language, the λ being
voiced [dl] and ƛ being voiceless [tɬ]. There will also need to be a
capital for ƛ, but as this is already Latin script, I didn’t mention it.

Great. Then I will get back to the communities with this information and
start the proposal process.
Thank-you
