OTOH there does not seem to be much more than a superficial glyph variation
between many of the Indic scripts which *have* been encoded separately.
Compare for instance Kannada and Telugu which share a common origin in the not
so distant past - and are still very near identical - yet are encoded in
their own ranges.
