So MoarVM uses its own database of the UCD. One nice thing is this can probably be faster than calling to the ICU to look up information of each codepoint in a long string. Secondly it implements its own text data structures, so the nice features of the UCD to do that would be difficult to use

Rakudo does not use ICU It used to though. Rakudo used to run on Parrot. Parrot used ICU for its Unicode features. (Well maybe the JVM backend does currently, I don't actually know.) MoarVM just has Unicode as one of its features. Basically it has something similar to ICU already. ---
