I suppose we could add a rule that reconstructions always have Latin as an additional possible script. But whether something is a reconstruction is not always that clear, like I showed. What should be done in mixed cases like the above? We can probably rule out mixed script, like if someone had written the "ego" in a native script but "cominitio" in Latin script. We don't support script mixing like that for any term, attested or not, so that is not a problem. But should we allow Latin as a possible script even when one of the terms in the link is attested but the other is reconstructed? Personally, I don't think it should. So that would keep the detection relatively simple: if the whole term begins with * then it's all reconstructed, and then you can add Latin, otherwise not. How is that?
