Incorrect mappings of 5 全-composed characters for HK and TW
As title. For TW and HK, the upper part of the 全 component should be a 入, not 人. They are not unifiable. Five codepoints are affected:
| # | Codepoint | Current glyph | Remap suggestion | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | U+5168 全 | uni5168-JP | -> | uni5168uE0101-JP |
| 2 | U+6D24 洤 | uni6D24-CN | -> | uni6D24-JP |
| 3 | U+8DE7 跧 | uni8DE7-CN | -> | uni8DE7-JP |
| 4 | U+8F07 輇 | uni8F07-CN | -> | uni8F07-JP |
| 5 | U+9293 銓 | uni9293-CN | -> | uni9293-JP |
I am aware that the font is using two slightly different designs for JP/KR and TW/HK, like below:
The only difference is the length of the horizontal line of 入 (TW/HK is slightly shorter). This, to me, is actually a unifiable difference. Which is why I am not suggesting new glyphs be added.
Well as of 2.001, I have verified the fix, except for 牷 and maybe some others. I suppose in the next version, I suggest mapping those characters to JP/KR forms if all components are unifiable, that is.
UPDATE: Here is a list of characters to review:

Green - The JP/KR glyphs to map to HK/TW. (佺拴洤栓牷) Blue - The HK/TW glyphs to be replaced by JP/KR glyphs. (佺拴洤栓牷) Orange - Adjust the 入 component to follow the JP aesthetic of a longer horizontal line. (姾恮烇㻇硂絟𧊲詮駩𠓾峑𣁦荃筌痊) Purple - The HK/TW glyphs to map to JP/KR, after adjustment. (恮㻇硂絟峑) White - No change needed.
This original issue was addressed a long time ago so closing this. The additional comments after that can be looked at as part of a new issue if necessary.

@punchcutter Which is exactly why I already made a new issue regarding the additional 全 mappings. This can be seen as a continuation of this closed issue.
