I'm not really arguing with you, just giving a slightly difference of
emphasis...
I don't think that failure to support the SMPs is a deal-breaker. Obviously,
if you specifically need some subset of Unicode in the SMPs, say Phoenician,
then it may be, but I'm just talking about general use. Given the generally
poor support for non-ASCII characters many applications provide, any Unicode
support is better than none.
