The article sure mentions 💩a lot.

Just give me plain UTF32 with ~@4 billion code points, that really should be enough for any symbol ee can come up with. Give everything it's own code point, no bullshit with combined glyphs that make text processing a nightmare. I need to be able to do a strlen either on byte length or amount of characters without the CPU spendings minute to count each individual character.

I think Unicode started as a great idea and the kind of blubbered into aimless "everybody kinda does what everyone wants" territory. Unicode is for humans, sure, but we shouldn't forget that computers actually have to do the work

I'm personally waiting for utf-64 and for unicode to go back to fixed encoding and forgetting about merging code points into complex characters. Just keep a zeptillion code points for absolutely everything.
