Where are you getting this from?
You asserted yesterday that "so many people will embrace a new Fraktur
range." I asserted that there was no such demand. Now you say again
that lots of people want a separate Fraktur encoding.
Since you are the one trying to draw an analogy between Phoenician and
Fraktur, in terms of demand for separate encoding, I think the burden is
on you to prove that such a demand exists for Fraktur. Otherwise the
analogy is pointless.
