Interesting tidbit:
57 D800 - DFFF Non-Plane 0. Note that setting this bit implies that
there is at least one supplementary code point
beyond the Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP) that
is supported by this font. See Surrogates and
Supplementary Characters.
Extrapolating (since there is no other way to treat this), having a
Subset “identified” may mean just that there is at least 1 character
in this range supported by the font. ;-) :-(
