Description
I have noticed that some of the Unicode characters seem to never be present in any subset fonts.
For example, the base `latin` subset comes with arrows up ↑ and down ↓ characters, but not left ← or right →. Please consider adding these two characters to the base `latin` set to maintain consistent look of all arrows, but also, perhaps a separate subset should be created for all characters that aren't specifically Latin, Cyrillic, Greek, Vietnamese, etc., but are universal?

Current Source Sans 3 TTF downloaded from the font repo and opened in FontForge:
As you can see, there are many more arrows (as well as other interesting characters) in the TTF, which are unavailable in webfont files exported from Google Fonts.
Arrows left/right in particular might be used in navigation links, for example:
