Well, there are certainly counter-examples (or so it seems to me)
with, e.g., U+2A1F and U+2A3E which both are "z notation composition"
but with difference classes (i.e., uses). Note that I knew about this
notation before looking at how it's typeset, so I might be missing
something important here. No matter.
I feel a little lost in this big table, but I hope to find my way.
Most of it is falling into place now.
