Rereading my previous email, I think its tone may come across as rude/angry.
It was not my intention. It is hard to properly convey a tone with text. I
am sorry.

At Least according to me, if someone is unfamiliar with the term
Devanagari, he can easily look up what it means or look at the text to its
right and infer the meaning from that.

Rather I would suggest that we add new aliases for Devanagari - like

Devanagari is a widely used script, many languages use it, such as:
Konkani, Bodo, Rajasthani, Hariyanvi, Bhojpuri, Maithili, Newa, Kashmiri,
Dogri, Kumaoni etc.
Therefore it is better to write just one entry that demonstrates that Emacs
supports this character set, after all this is the main purpose of
etc/HELLO.
