--- Comment #1 from Erin Yuki Schlarb <erin-kde at ninetailed.ninja> ---
Just to avoid any potential misunderstandings I’d also like to point out that
Unicode “compatibility” normalizations are not about “improving compatibility
with software” but to make “compatible characters” equivalent during machine
processing (typically full-text searches). I’m adding this specifically because
I know e-mail is basically a giant compatibility hack and removing anything “cf
compatibility“ may be met with an immediate “we can’t, it might break
something”.
