I know you're busy, but I still want to see an explication here of exactly
why these various abjads are being encoded separately from Hebrew, given
that there is a one-to-one mapping and a continuous path of mutual
intelligibility.

If a soldier is asked why he kills people who have done him no harm, or a
terrorist why he kills innocent people with his bombs, they can always
reply that war has been declared, and there are no innocent people in an
enemy country in wartime.  The answer is psychotic, but it is the answer
that humanity has given to every act of aggression in history.  --Northrop Frye
