My question was "Isn't inverted interrobang simply the sequence
U+00BF + U+00A1". I frankly don't care what interrobang is or isn't,
and I don't think it is relevant here. Legacy is legacy, you have to
look forward. Inverted interrobang is not simply the interrobang
character inverted.
Inverted interrobang is U+00BF + U+00A1 as far as I can tell, inverted
question mark followed by inverted exclamation mark. You're answer
"No" doesn't make it clear why not?
