The nice thing about ꙮ having ten eyes is that you can now combine ten of them with U+200D ZERO WIDTH JOINER [1] to make a centiclops grapheme, as long as your font has a glyph for that particular ligature. (Readers without centiclops-compatible fonts will simply see ten separate ꙮ glyphs, an acceptable fallback for legacy systems.)
