Have we ruled out simple substitution unwisely?

What do you mean? Spanish "ü" is a single letter that can occur only after "g", and  Greek "ς" is a single letter that can occur only at the end of a word.  And Mandarin "ng" is a single sound (IPA "ŋ" or thereabouts) that can occur only at the end of a syllable (= word).

Portuguese (and Italian) "h" can only occur after 3 (2) specific letters, or at the start of a few words (where it is silent, so it would be omitted in a more rational spelling).

And your example iin is a trigram...  

All the best, --stolfi
