Please have a look at the examples. This isn't a parallel to accents. The Tamil vowels and consonants in questions are clearly distinct side by side. They could have been styled using a mechanical typewriter by double-striking, underlining or switching to the second color. Individually. > if you ask the system to do bizarre things, it's your own fault (while > applying color is not quite so bizarre). Emphasizing a single letter isn't bizarre. It is often used in educational material. Please consider the analogy of 'th' being considered a unbreakable conjunct in English and any attempts to style only the 't' or only the 'h' failing with differing results.
