Section 6, paragraph (page 11) states: "[TLD] provides a definition of variant as well as suggests which variants are appropriate, and [TLD] adds additional information. The results of these projects can be seen as authoritative for script-based LGRs."  But for TLDs an extremely narrow definition of "variants" is used -- one which includes only those cases which not even a tiny fraction of the user population will notice.  A rather larger group (distinguishable by perhaps 10% of the population, while not noticed by the remaining 90%+) are classified as "confusables".  For them, a Similarity Review Panel is envisioned to conduct a manual review process.  

Is it planned that something similar will be done with SLDs?  Or will the "confusables" from the TLD project be included as "variants" here?
