Description

I apologize for seemingly posting duplicate issues, but I need to organize myself for this. While trying to write every issue I found in Sans and Serif, I found several inconsistencies with the 睪 component in CN where some of the characters are following the JP-style of 幸, where the bottommost stroke is shorter than the second-most bottom stroke.

斁 (U+6581, in cyan), 釋 (U+91CB, in cyan) and 鸅 (U+9E05) can be safely remapped to TW/HK, and the current glyph for 鸅 be removed (marked in orange). The reason is because even if the latter glyph is suitable for JP/KR, it is outside of Adobe-Japan1 support and therefore should be removed.
懌 (U+61CC, in pink) could have the TW/HK glyph removed and remapped to CN, they look very similar.
殬 (U+6BAC, in brown) would need to restore the v1 CN glyph if there is enough space. It does not appear in any commonly used characters in China, Taiwan and Hong Kong, only in GBK and GB18030 (both extended character sets for China), so the likelihood is probably low, although I could say I am trading one glyph for another, so restore it if possible.
㶠 (U+3DA0, in yellow) should be adjusted.

Accordingly, I have amended my previous posts containing duplicate issues, striking out text or removing my comments where appropriate.
