But just so it's clear to Leif and Milos, one of the constraints of BCP
47 is that the "Scope: macrolanguage" designation in the Registry must
follow ISO 639 strictly.  We cannot add or remove this designation on
the basis of whether we personally feel that Serbo-Croatian is or is not
a "macrolanguage," however we personally define that term.
