I came across a web page [1] that quoting from a publication
published by the Sierra Leone government indicates that
this script contains 195 characters. If true, this would require
thirteen rows and not the twelve envisaged by the roadmap.
However, the solution would seem simple enough.
Expand the tentatively planned Mende block by one row
and shift the Bassa block over one row. This would also
give a tentative assignment to the entirety of the U+11BXX
block. Since a one row block would seem to be unlikely
to be independently assigned., I don't think that this move
would harm anything, even if it should prove unnecessary.
(Sorry, no details on the script at that site, but the number
given does not make me think that they were counting
the numerous glyph variants that the script has.)
