"So" and "Ti" are used in English-language tonic sol-fa, so these are not
"wrong" as such, but merely part of another tradition.

Because "Sol" and "Si" use the same starting letter, how would you
abbreviate them such that you don't have to reproduce the complete note
name in each notehead? This is especially important if you also want to
include accidentals inside the noteheads as well.
