Indeed - it is extremely unfortunate that users will need to wait until 
2021(!) to get it into Unicode so Google will finally add it to the Noto 
fonts.

There seems to be no conscionable reason for such a long delay after the 
approval.

If that's just how things are done, fine, I certainly can't change the whole 
system. But imagine if you had to wait two years to even have a chance of 
using a letter you desperately need to write your language? Imagine if the 
letter "Q" was unencoded and Noto refused to add it for two more years?
