Python 3 and Swift have the issue of being totally tied to unicode, so if the politics and issues around Han Unification matter to you then those two are actually also not usable for you.
Those issues do matter to me, yet Unicode-based languages like Python 3 and Swift are not only usable, they are best general approach (among actually existing technologies, not among all theoretically possible approaches). I've been building Asian (CJK) infosystems since the 1980s, and there are far fewer problems with Unicode-based approaches than with the encoding soup we had before.
