Well, note entirely. Until a version of the standard is formally
published, there remains a slight but mathematically non-zero chance
that a code point will have to move. The meeting giving the final
approval is going on this week, so the odds are extremely slim that
these will move.
As a rule, the Unicode Consortium discourages people from starting to
use codepoints before their a formal part of the standard. The
approval process is long and requires several rounds both in Unicode
itself and in ISO.
