Stylistic sets are really a font-specific (and indeed, font *technology*
specific) solution to the problem, and in general if there are glyphs that
look nominally identical but have different semantics (as is the case for
a number of characters already in SMuFL), then it seems more appropriate
to have a dedicated range for those characters.
