Normalization wouldn’t address this.
- happytoexplain 10mo agoWhat do you mean? All four normal forms of the Kelvin 'K' are the Latin 'K', as far as I can tell.
- nwellnhof 10mo agoNormalization forms NFKC and NFKD that also handle compatibility equivalence do.
- mananaysiempre 10mo agoA few deprecated characters, including the Kelvin and Ångström symbols, are in fact canonically equivalent to their replacements and not just compatibility equivalent, so plain NFC/NFD is enough. (It’s generally better to avoid NFKC/NFKD normalizations unless you fully understand the implications, as they do lose meaning and at the same time do not account for all possible confusables.)
