  FR Annex E [uaxid] <http://eel.is/c++draft/uaxid> Shorten contents and
  integrate with [lex.name]

GitHub nbballot issue #411
<https://github.com/cplusplus/nbballot/issues/411>.


    Comment:

The usefulness of that clause is debatable.

Please state in [lex.name] the set of rules/profiles followed by c++
identifiers, rather than listing all of the rules that do not apply.


    Proposed change:

Only state "C++ conforms to UAX31 by meeting the requirements R1
“Default Identifiers” and R4 “Equivalent Normalized Identifiers” and
remove [uaxid]


    SG16 chair notes:

As discussed in the 2022-10-19 SG16 telecon
<https://github.com/sg16-unicode/sg16-meetings#october-19th-2022>, this
comment has interaction with US-64.


    Candidate polls:

  * [FR-XX]: SG16 recommends accepting the comment in the direction of
    the proposed change.
  * [FR-XX]: SG16 recommends rejecting the comment on the basis that
    explicit indication of Unicode requirement conformance,
    non-conformance, or inapplicability is useful.

Tom.
