Not if you follow the "loose matching" rule UAX44-LM1 (see earlier
message) which says that mathematically equivalent (or nearly so)
numbers should be treated as equivalent.

UnicodeData-8.0.0d8.txt:
109FB;MEROITIC CURSIVE FRACTION SIX TWELFTHS;No;0;R;;;;6/12;N;;;;;

DerivedNumericValues-8.0.0d10.txt:
109FB ; 0.5 ; ; 1/2 # No MEROITIC CURSIVE FRACTION SIX TWELFTHS
