I was not expecting the drama around it. Is the issue truly a different orthography or is more like a different font/ligature issue?
EDIT: forgot the article I found on it: https://restofworld.org/2021/tulu-unicode-script/
Very interesting article and background. My father's side of the family is all from Mysuru but also long roots in Udupi and Manipal. I'll ask if anybody are Tulu speakers, I don't think so as I've never heard of it.
So not all the characters are even known yet?
