No, don't push my programmer's muscle memory which wants to work with the set of characters that 99% if not all the programming languages use for identifiers and syntactic constructs. At least don't do it to me while I'm programming (elisp code, comments, Git commit messages) where my brain needs as little Unicode noise as possible. Switching to the US layout where most language designers designed popular programming languages in the second half of the 20th century was one of the most productive decisions of my career. If I want to type type fancy smileys (or my own name Jo=C3=A3o) in non-programming Unicode capable places, that's another story. Jo=C3=A3o
