    Ah, sorry for my poor English. I think you're saying that
    Unicode is NOT law that can permit or prohibit any software
    by legal power. I agree. We have freedom to write a software
    which does not conform to Unicode.

    I wish if the conversion between CJK Compatibility Ideographs
    and CJK Unified Ideograph plus IVS is commented as "IVS in
    UTS #37 does not support the codepoint conversion (e.g. from
    CJK Compatibility Ideographs to CJK Unified Ideographs plus IVS)".
