Anshu, I simply treat WG2 as a bureaucratic exercise bolted onto the actual work that Unicode does. In 20 years, I have never once had occasion to refer to ISO 10646, while I refer to Unicode every day. When I visit clients, none of them talk about implementing ISO 10646; they all talk about implementing Unicode.

My recommendation is simply to ignore WG2 and act as if it doesn't exist. It already might as well not, and with its policies is only likely to become more and more irrelevant.

Getting Spiekermann to not like Helvetica is like training
a cat to stay out of water. But I'm impressed that people
know who to ask when they want to ask someone to not like
Helvetica. That's progress. -- David Berlow
