There is "pi" without anything, pi with a curvy line that touches the middle, pi with the same curvy line that touches the left leg, and pi with a curvy line that just kind of floats there. Am I correct in assuming these four forms?
Pretty sure there's no consensus. EVA considers all forms with the "curvy line" to be equivalent and they are transcribed as <sh>. I think the Voyn_101 transcription by Glen Claston recognizes a few different forms of <sh>. To me it seems that while <sh> is definitely written in different ways in different places, if these were intended to be different glyphs (which I'm not sure about) then the scribe (who I think was a copyist) did not reliably distinguish them.
