0149; 0149; 02BC 004E; 02BC 004E; # LATIN SMALL LETTER N PRECEDED BY
APOSTROPHE
As 0149 has no uppercase precomposed character, Unicode
represents it by the sequence of 02BC (MODIFIER LETTER
APOSTROPHE) and 004E ('N') (incredibly bad design).
Then, how should we downcase this sequence? To 0149 or to
02BC+'n'.
Suppose it always results in 0149. Would that be bad?
Is there any case in which the only correct result
is 02BC, 'n'?
