While I have no quibbles with the problem statement "While CJK 
compatibility ideographs (U+F900~ and up) are mentioned several times, 
there's no mention of CJK ideographs (block U+4E00~ and others). Korean 
nowadays is normally written in Hangul, but still uses CJK ideographs 
occasionally", I believe neither kind of ideograph is "punctuation".

So, I would not expect either one to be listed under heading 2.1.2 (at 
least not without wording change of the heading).

Compatibility *ideographs* are something different from compatibility 
*Symbols and Punctuation*....

So, for 2.1.2, the mention of F900 is questionable and should not be 
compounded by adding 4E00... more I can't tell without delving deeper 
into the document and its history than I am able at this point.
