    Unicode has ~150k characters, many of which are not supported by any fonts on most people’s computers. They still have space in the encoding system for another 900k. They have the space.

    For comparison, the Basic Multilingual Plane in Unicode (the most “useful” part with most modern languages) only contains 65k characters and ASCII only contains 128 characters.
