I assume that the reasons you are thinking of, are congruent with those that
Ken already explained in detail in:
http://www.unicode.org/mail-arch/unicode-ml/y2018-m03/0025.html
And I think with Ken that the idea in itself isnʼt bad as such, but that it is not
feasible any longer. Everybody (supposedly) knows that the Core Spec has
really been translated, published in a print edition, scanned into Google Books,
and is still for sale:

OK, the version number was only half the actual one.
Best regards,
