My English is far too be perfect, I think I understood
it correctly.

The point in not in the words "grapheme" or "code point",
neither in "individual", ;-), the point is in "rather".

If one wishes to work on a set of graphemes, one can
only work with the set of the corresponding code points.


To complete Serhiy Storchaka's example:

>>> len(unicodedata.normalize('NFKD', '\ufdfa')) == 18
True

is correct.

PS I did not even speak about the FSR.
