Dear Colleagues,
I'm not entirely clear what is being implied by "problematic" in the proposed answer. Are we saying that we object? Or simply that we didn't reach the same conclusion?
It seems to me that, for cross script variants, if either GP finds a pair to be variants, that is sufficient. After all, they know what their own users will find to be cause for confusion.
Now when one GP finds multiple cross-script variants which would result in in-script variants for the other, that's a different situation. I see two possible scenarios:
- If we have agreed that the two in our script are Different, I can see raising an objection.
- On the other hand, we may have a case where our opinion was divided, perhaps even narrowly. It seems to me that in those cases we should live with the results of transitivity.
P.S. I see that we missed V and V with Dot Below in out underlining analysis. Oops. I've added it to our table so we can deal with it.
