It's recommended that you not use these (or other Unicode variants of
normal letters) in regular text — they are generally not handled in a
friendly or useful way by screen readers. There are contexts where using
them is a reasonable trade-off, but I'd say that emphasis in regular
text is not one of those contexts.
