Is it about the characters themselves or about self-insertion of those characters? The rest of the node says, for example, that `insert' inserts without inheritance. Doesn't that mean that if you pass a string of self-inserting chars to `insert' then they will not inherit from the char before the insertion? That is contradicted by the first sentence of the node. You might claim that the hand-waving word "normally" there means that they do so only when self-inserted. That's not obvious. It would be clearer to just say that: they inherit when they are self-inserted. And if that is not always the case then add a waffle word "normally" or "usually" back: usually they inherit when they are self-inserted.
