No, it uses a string of characters for items
that most people agree are probably single
textual objects. This will reduce the entropy
(i.e. it artificially further reduces the entropy).

Eva (following Frogguy) thus treats the strings
of III in the same way as the strings of CCC.
Currier does not. CCC are always written out,
but III are combined with the trailing character.
