Yes you are right. We are discussing the Mongolian character now. But the
U1880-U1884 is not the Mongolian owns.
It is borrowed from ancient Tibetan script.

I appreciate your work on this and hope to see the Mongolian . Thanks a lot
for your clarification.
There are no objection on the chart. Go ahead your work.
We are looking forward to find out the correction early and utilize the
standard in early time.

But I would argue that these are not Tibetan characters; they are Mongolian
characters used to transliterate Tibetan characters.

The Unicode Standard contains mistakes, and the code chart for Mongolian
clearly does.  I hope to report tonight a set of unarguable mistakes such as
the omission of the glyph for "1820 180C  third form (medial)"; the glyph is
missing for many such variants.

I would say it is probably best to accept what the code chart has done for
U+1883 and U+1884, unless you know of fonts or natural writing that behave
differently.
