That would be a nightmare.
Programming language (or most computer-based texts) should only use
basic ASCII characters, except if it can't be helped since typing non-
ASCII characters is still unreliable. It'd also be a headache to
memorize what keyboard combinations to use to type a character. Not to
mention how much more complex would the keyboard design be. Also not
mentioning how much more complex the language design would be to
handle all those non-ASCII characters.
