Please stop saying "glyphs" in this context. None of this discussion
has to do with the exact appearance of these characters, and how their
appearance might differ depending on the font or context or rendering
engine. That is what "glyph" refers to, and why it is different from
"character," the abstract concept of a unit of writing, or "code point,"
a numeric value to which a character may (or may not) be assigned.
