This is not entirely true. Tamil Sign Visarga is Lo, unlike the
Visarga-s of other Indic scripts. OTOH it can be argued that the
function of the Tamil Sign Visarga is not entirely visarga-like.
I hope this practice of UTC doesn't mean that the visarga or
ardhavisarga proposed for any new Indic script would have to be perforce
Mc and Lo would not be allowed.
