Reprint them with new spelling? We have 500 year old books that are unreadable. 99.99% of all books published will not be relevant to anyone that isn’t consuming them right at that moment anyway.

Lovers can read the lord of the rings in the ‘original’ spelling.

The point is that you still want the universal encoding to be able to represent such texts.
