    *I* have never ever talked about U+0943 !

    U+090B and U+095C are different letters of the Hindi alphabet
    with different pronunciation. They need different Latin letters
    in transliteration since transliteration is supposed to be 1-to-1.

    U+090B is R with ring below
    U+095C is R with dot below

    They are needed *at the same time* in Hindi (and other Indic
    languages).
