I think Mongolian script is always written that way.

Yes I think scripts like Mongolian and Phags Pa are always writte= n vertically.

Are there any scripts that people actually write in
that people do not nowadays write horizontally in word processors?

I am sorry I do not understand the questi= on, did you meant to say "vertically"?
btw word process= ors like libreoffice support vertical text.

If people have learned to a= ccept writing those scripts horizontally, I
think that way is good enough for Emacs too.

Wouldn't it be better to support vertical text in Emacs, = the only reason people would have "learned to accept" to write th= ese scripts horizontally is because their preferred way of writing is not s= upported in many softwares/websites.
I know that this is a comple= x process, but at least we can try.
