I'm honestly surprised by this. I always thought (because it was repeated 
so many times - must remember repetition does not equal truth) that 
round-trip compatibility with old character sets was a founding cornerstone 
of Unicode and so contrastive use (aka source separation) in an old charset 
would be persuasive evidence for inclusion.
