I don't know about stigma, but in other languages, ligatures sometimes
carry semantics -- i.e. sometimes you want them, sometimes not (in old
German writing it depends, among other things on whether the ligature
lies across a word composition). And then, there are things like ß, which
used to be a ligature.
The more you look into it the messier :-)
