Exactly. Human language invented by speakers actually communicating over critical issues (trade, war, sex) over thousands of years.

Don't trust a single set of new glyphs, cobbled together by designers, basically unilaterally compared to a huge marketplace of speakers, whose purpose is not necessarily to communicate, but sometimes, "to look good" or "match aesthetic" of the context.

Something developed without the same selective pressure cannot be trusted the same to be as effective.
