    Judges in courts use concurring opinions to avoid this problem, and they're very useful for avoiding unnecessary confusion in precedent. WG2 should do this too; it would be helpful to Unicode users, and for the same reason.
    The fact that WG2 isn't called a "court" is of course beside the point.
