Description

All code points not explicitly listed for Script_Extensions have as their value the corresponding Script property value.

Ensure this is the case for the generated Unicode data. Currently it looks like we’re ony looking at ScriptExtensions.txt to generate the data.

Research direction

Verify that unlisted code points receive their Script value rather than being omitted, and use the repository's generation or validation workflow to confirm the output.
