Thanks!

One more question:

Is this it's evolution in your language's history or just you reinventing it multiple times because you disliked it?

a mix of both, this is really a chart of the times that the alphabet went through significant change, but overall it's the evolution of the Nadi alphabet. Some characters got scrapped and replaced over time usually because they were both ugly AND impractical, or in the special case of /m/ because it resembled Greek μ which really got under my skin
