I don't see DUCET as being ever used but we are setting the old algorithm as a fallback for CLDR. I was just wondering how DUCET compares to the existing algorithm. Given that DUCET is in the standard and that you already implemented it, I thought it would be a better fallback than the old code. It's your call though.
