What confusion are you referring to? Are we talking about a buffer
with or without R2L characters? And how would setting
bidi-display-reordering to nil resolve that confusion?
IOW, please describe the relevant use cases in more detail. Without
that, I fear we are having a misunderstanding of some kind.
> It has to be easy to do, so why NOT do it?
Because the unidirectional display will one day go away, and having a
user option will be an obstacle to getting rid of it. We have been
there with unibyte buffers.
