I think Christian brings a very strong point.

Bill, the more ad-hoc our implementation is, the more challenges we create downstream for adoption in terms of Universal Acceptance. So it needs to be a balancing act.

On the subject of "machine testable", it may be worth noting that this isn't an obvious thing.  

For example, while Unicode may not provide a file of entries defined by "Latin Small Letter [X] With...", it is entirely possible to write code which will parse the Unicode table and identify those.  How big an effort that would be, and whether we think it worth it are debatable.  But "machine testable" isn't a bar to doing it.
