- Fix an ASCII period after a CJK honorific stopping it being recognized: ``씨.``, ``様.``, ``氏.``, ``님.``, ``군.``, ``양.`` and ``殿.`` now route to ``suffix`` like their periodless spellings, where the trailing period had left them inside the name — the family name in ``"김민준 씨."``, the given name in ``"김민준, 씨."``. The cause was v1's initial regex, ``^(\w\.|[A-Z])?$`` (``REGEXES["initial"]``, still public v1 API), whose ``\w`` is Unicode-aware and so matched a hangul syllable or a Han ideograph as readily as a letter; the strict suffix test applies that as a veto (``V.`` in ``"John V. Smith"`` is a middle initial, not roman five), and a veto written for Latin was being asked of scripts it was never about. The cost ran past the honorific itself: because the vetoed token read as name text, the glued-honorific peel's scan back for its site stopped at it instead of stepping over it, took it as the site, found no honorific at the end of it and gave up — so ``"田中さん 様."`` kept ``さん`` inside the name, reading given ``田中さん`` and family ``様.``, while ``"田中さん 様"`` peeled it. The comma form ``"田中さん, 様."`` reached the same scan when this was written; since the #319 entry above it no longer does — its post-comma run is now declined as suffix-shaped before the scan begins, so ``様.`` gets to ``suffix`` through classification rather than by being stepped over. Measured against 1.4.0, ``"김민준, 씨."`` and ``"田中さん, 様."`` were returning exactly what 1.x returns, so the honorific work earlier in this release had a hole in it wherever the honorific was written with a period. An initial is a single LETTER standing in for a name, and Han ideographs, hangul syllables and kana are morphemes and syllables rather than letters, so the veto now asks its question only of the scripts where it means something. Alphabets keep their initials untouched — ``"А. С. Пушкин"``, ``"م. الفارسي"`` and ``"Ա. Խաչատրյան"`` are unaffected, and so is the Ukrainian conjunction entry below, where a punctuated ``Й.`` still outranks the conjunction ``й``. The public ``initial`` tag follows the same line: ``씨.`` no longer carries it. Read ``period`` strictly here: the fix is scoped to the ASCII full stop U+002E, because that is the only period ``_normalize`` strips. The fullwidth U+FF0E and the ideographic U+3002 (with its halfwidth twin U+FF61) — the stops a CJK writer is likelier to type — leave the honorific unmatchable by the vocabulary lookup, which runs before the veto is ever consulted, so ``"김민준 씨．"`` still reads the honorific as the family name. That is a separate, still-open gap in ``_normalize`` rather than in the veto: those spellings parse identically before and after this change, and widening the strip is follow-up work. **Default-on**, and it reaches ``HumanName`` too (#320)
