> No native English speaker would ever think to try “Greco Unification” and consolidate the English, Russian, German, Swedish, Greek, and other European languages’ alphabets into a single alphabet.

This actually is a pretty good idea. Cyrillic, Latin, and other "Greco" scripts share quite a lot of characters. There's no need for both А (http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/0410/index.htm) and A (http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/0041/index.htm) beyond ASCII and other legacy compatibility.
