Summary
Instead of using
emoji
as an example of an explicitly-requested collation type, usezhuyin
instead.Motivation
The
emoji
collation type is intended for charts and emoji pickers and that it combines with a language like English is incidental and works only because English is an alias for the root collation. Notably, it doesn't combine with languages that aren't aliases for the root.The non-default collation types that have the most present-day use case relevance are probably
zhuyin
for Traditional Chinese andphonebk
for German and of these, phonebooks are arguably more special-casey. Therefore, usingzhuyin
as the example.Supporting details
