Well... the rationale for that would be the same thing that unifies the
"." in "3.14" and "Mr. Fung".
However, in this case, it's true, that they might be better dis-unified
and we are considering that. The PUNCTUM (brevis) most often has a
slightly convex upper side and concave lower side while the square notehead
of modern music is really square.
