A nice example of how the idea of static global allocation of code points totally fails is Unicode (*).

(*) Trying to write this in ASCII, or I would add an emoji expressing sarcasm.
Obviously, the rules for curating the Unicode space are very different from those for the SID space, but Unicode is the textbook example for why we are moving forward *towards* those global code-point spaces as opposed to away from them.
