\subsection{\cs{symbol} in math mode for large Unicode values}
-The \LaTeXe{} kernel defines the command \cs{symbol}, which allows characters to be
-typeset by entering their `slot number'. With the \LuaTeX{} and \XeTeX{} engines, these
-slot numbers can extend to very large values to accomodate Unicode characters in the upper
-Unicode planes (e.g., bold mathematical capital A is slot number \texttt{"1D400} in hex or
-\texttt{119808} in decimal).
-The \XeTeX{} engine did not allow \cs{symbol} in math mode for values above $2^{16}$, and
-this limitation has now been lifted.
