Thoughts on [m, g] as [in, ain]? (Stolfi)

[ReneZ]

The top result for 'g' (and 6th for 'm') is the empty string, where removing -g/-m results in a word that occurs in the page (e.g. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.).

This is interesting and unexpected. 

For the case of 'm', the sixth place is quite low, given that:
- 'm' is most frequently preceded by 'a'
- words ending 'a' are rare
- the 1st to 5th place in this list are all occupied by characters or short strings that tend to follow 'a' and are equally at the end of words.

For the case of 'g', the empty string is a serious possibility, but the 2nd and 3rd case are just about as frequent.

From my point of view, first of all, the suggestion that m and g should be abbreviations is very unlikely. Nothing in the MS suggests that abbreviation was on the author's mind. It is almost as unlikely as the suggestion that they should be independent characters by themselves.

Secondly, because of their very specific preferable use at line ends, seeing them as 'beautifications'  remains my top favourite. 
For 'm', my preferred l/r are 1st and 3rd in Marco's list and for 'g' my preferred y is shared 2nd.
