<p><font face="Cambria">Here is a brief discussion about this issue.</font></p>
<p><font face="Cambria">By and large, we have been including all the cross-script variants in the cross-script variant analysis which (or any combination of which) could stand as a alone valid character/character sequence.</font></p>
<p><font face="Cambria">Recently IP has suggested that we may want to reconsider this where a small number of code-points are involved as that is an indicative of very small overlap between the scripts. </font></p>
<p><font face="Cambria">There are two kinds of such cases:</font></p>
<p><font face="Cambria"> 1. Cross-script variant set made up of dependent characters <b>ONLY</b>:</font></p>
<p><font face="Cambria"> 2. Cross-script variant sets which do included non-dependent characters/sequences:</font></p>
<p><font face="Cambria">Let us take a look at each of them individually:</font></p>
<p><b><font face="Cambria">1. </font></b><b><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria">Cross-script variants made up of dependent characters only:</font></font></b></p>
<p><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria">This</font></font><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria"> is the case as given in the Example 2 given by Pitinan:</font></font></p>
<p><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria"><i>Telugu ం (0C02) and Malayalam ം (0D02) are NOT variant code points. As they are combining marks and cannot form variant labels. The same applies or Telugu ః (0C03)and Malayalam ഃ (0D03)</i></font></font></p>
<p><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria">If dependent characters (e.g. Vowel Signs, Anusvara, Visarga, Chandrabindu etc) are the <b>ONLY</b> cases of cross-script variants among the script involved, it is safe to assume the <b>NON</b><b>E</b> of the labels created entirely of the cross-script variants would be valid ones. Hence we did not include them in the cross-script variants of the script pair. However, if there is even one non-dependent (e.g. Consonant, Vowel etc) character as a part of the cross-script variants, then all such cases should mandatorily be included in the cross-script variant table.</font></font></p>
<p><b><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria">2. </font></font></b><b><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria">Cross-script variants which do included non-dependent characters/sequences:</font></font></font></b></p>
<p><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria">This is the case as given in the Example 1 given by Pitinan:</font></font></p>
<p><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria"><i>Oriya ଠ (0B20) and Malayalam ഠ (0D20) are variant code points. </i></font></font></p>
<p><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria">As both the code-points involved in this pair are non-dependent, even the smallest instance (single code-point) i.e. ଠ (</font></font><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria">Oriya </font></font>) and ഠ (Malayalam) are valid labels which look exactly alike. If we concatenate instances of same variant characters with one another, we, in theory, get infinite number labels as given below:</font></font></p>

<p><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria">.....</font></font></p>
<p><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria">all of these look exactly alike, belong to totally different scripts and can gain independent existence if not included in the cross-script variant set. This indicates that though seemingly the number of characters is few, it can create a large number of labels. Important thing to note here is the presence of at least one non-dependent character in the cross-script variant set. </font></font></p>
<p><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria">Hence, it is proposed that:</font></font></p>
<p><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria">If, in any two given scripts, all the potential cross-script variants consist of dependent (</font></font><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria">e.g. Vowel Signs, Anusvara, Visarga, Chandrabindu etc</font></font>) characters <b>ONLY</b>, then that entire set can be ignored and no cross-script variants be proposed between those two scripts. </font></font></p>
<p><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria">If, in any two given scripts, there is <b>AT LEAST ONE</b> non-dependent (</font></font><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria"><font face="Cambria">e.g. Consonant, Vowel etc</font></font>) cross-script variant character/sequence present, all the potential cross-script variants be considered and proposed between the two scripts.</font></font></p>
