Sorry for my linguistic mistake.  I was trying to say 'ASCII' in the
sense of strictly ASCII.

As for what 7991 is really talking about, interpreting 'ASCII' as
“accessible to a reader familiar with the Latin writing system”, rather
than strictly ASCII, I'll leave that interpretation as yours.  That's not
the understanding I got from 7991.

I indicated earlier that I thought expanding the use use of Latin to
the case you raised was reasonable, but it seems that response wasn't
enough for you, so now I have no idea of how to respond.
