In Section 5.1 of UAX #31 one reads

The given notation "isIdentifier(toNFC(S)) does not imply isIdentifier(S)" implies canonical 
equivalence, but the accompanying text speaks of compatability equivalence. Therefore this 
paragraph should be clarified.

Opt Subject: UAX#31 Fig 3: better example pairs

The current example contrasts two visuals on legibility point of view. 
Following example, would provide meaning difference to make the case stronger:

1) സദ്‌വാരം (uses ZWNJ; meaning 'Good week')
2) സദ്വാരം (does not use a joiner; meaning 'with a hole')
