    cuneiform isnt even that weird,
    check out the multiocular O ꙮ
    this was only used once in a single cyrillic manuscript to spell “many-eyed seraphim”

      And the version of it most apps use doesn’t even have enough eyes. The original text (and the updated since Unicode) has 10-eyed O, while most places display 7. Old Cyrillic texts are pretty wild.

        It’s kind of infuriating that with trouble having been taken defining this single use character, people don’t bother to render it correctly.
