Actually, no.

The panel worked the definition of “same” during the Brussels meeting (you attended) and this is what we finalized<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IrT_kfildf1SumYUqjkaIkMT-TYx9IRqtuPMV4YvKXU/edit#heading=h.6gojqs90rvxk>:
Within-script Variants

  *   Homoglyphs: when any given pair of code points or code point sequences are visually identical as represented in a common use font (e.g., Arial, Times New Roman or Courier New) by internet applications, such as internet browsers.
  *   Alternate Use: a pair of code points or sequence of code points that are regularly used interchangeably and are considered the same by the script users.

Briefly, these meet the definition in Procedure to Develop and Maintain the Label Generation Rules for the Root Zone in Respect of IDNA Labels:
An IDN variant, as understood here, is an alternate code point (or sequence of code points) that could be substituted for a code point (or sequence of code points) in a candidate label to create a variant label that is considered the “same” in some measure by a given community of Internet users.

Does that help?

Interesting point of view re:Marshallese . Let’s bring it up when we get to review in-script variants. For the time being please provide evidence of your candidates.

Thanks,
Dennis

As far as I can see, all of the Marshallese references are to justify exclusion.  Not inclusion.  What am I missing?

Bill,

For in-script variants IP asked we provide evidence of the variant relationship. Since the cases you are proposing do not fall in the homoglyph category, the panel must provide a strong reason for inclusion (e.g. Marshelle cases)

Thanks,
Dennis

I've taken the liberty of adding a couple dozen additional candidates.  (I held off the Rating 2 cases.  These are the slam dunks.)

I still think that, as discussed last week, we ought to include more cases rather than fewer.  Especially when we are sending a draft to the IP for review -- that's when they can tell us if we have taken a wrong turn.
