And similarly, f has overlappings with several more letters, so you would need ligatures for fb, fh, fk, f� etc. But then where would it end?
It ends where the font developer wants it to end, hopefully informed by some linguistic likelihood. In my case, it usually ends with fb ffb ff fh ffh fi ffi fj ffj fk ffk fl ffl. These are the only ligatures I include in every font: any additional ligatures would be design-specific or discretionary.
Note that I do not consider � and � to be ligatures per se, since they represent independent vowels.
