A variant subtag for "art" would be inappropriate. Neo not a variant of
"art", and in addition "art" is a collection code. Neo should have a primary
language subtag. A primary language subtag with 5-8 characters would work if
the request to add a three-character code for Neo to ISO 639-3 fails. (I
guess regarding Neo as a variant of Esperanto or Ido is not appropriate,
despite the similarities.)
