(#18851755)
Unicode normalization doesn't actually solve a single problem I mentioned. All of the listed characters are equal to themselves in both NFC and NFKC.
Also Unicode identifiers aren't rare in terms of language support. Most of the popular languages support them--C/C++, C#, Java, PHP, Python, Perl, Swift, Go, Rust, Ruby, JavaScript, even Ada. It's actually difficult to find a popular language that prohibits Unicode identifiers entirely (MATLAB does, not sure about Visual Basic).
