@mcc (It will do well because, very roughly, consonants that don't have a vowel in between end up being a ligature, and by default consonants have a built-in "-a" vowel that takes an extra codepoint to remove - and then non-a vowels are also handled as ligatures. So you end up with complex ligatures that take a lot of bytes to construct.)
@mal3aby @mcc For Hindi (and presumably other indic languages/script combinations) one should not forget cluster commonly used in informal context, even if they're not officially correct.
The Unicode proposal https://www.unicode.org/L2/L2026/26062-indian-language-feedback.pdf Text Rendering, Input, Search and Processing in Indian Languages states :
«Forms like क्यााा in which a vowel sound is
exaggerated by repeating the vowel sign
multiple times, which is popular in Hindi
novels, magazines, as well as on social
media»
I now wonder if further exaggeration like क्यााााााााा would seem natural? Aaaaaaaaaaaaaargh! I will probably never know
