The root sign is much more complex than just prepending specific sequences of characters (in a limited set): when it embeds some "text", it can it it recursively and unless you use additional parentheses for the linear presentation, it highly depends on the 2D layout of its operand (additionally

The related definition for extended grapheme clusters says: ( CRLF | *Prepend* *( RI-sequence | Hangul-Syllable | !Control ) ( Grapheme_Extend | *SpacingMark* )* | . ) However I do not understand why it may include only one Hangul-Syllable when applying prepended concatenation marks.

Also, for Kaithi (TUS-15.2 pages 570-571) I note this paragraph: The character U+110BD kaithi number sign is a format control character that interacts with digits, occurring either above or below a digit. The position of the kaithi number South and Central Asia-IV 571 15.2 Kaithi sign indicates
