+# We are assuming that:
+# * Most fonts that claim to support an Arabic letter actually do so;
+# * Most modern text rendering software use OpenType tables, instead of
+#   directly using presentation forms.
+# * Some good Arabic fonts do not support codepoints for Arabic presentation
+#   forms.
+# Thus, we are switching to general forms of Arabic letters.
 #
-# Select fonts based on support for presentation forms; this may
-# exclude some OpenType fonts, but the hope is those would be
-# located by a clever shaper by Unicode codepoints in any case.
-#
-# General forms.
