NFC Quick Check - Maybe
Maybe is a specific outcome when testing whether a string is already in Normalization Form C (NFC). It indicates that the string does not definitively pass or fail the quick check, meaning that while the initial scan found no obvious decompositions requiring recombination, a full normalization pass is still necessary to confirm whether any subtle character sequences, such as those involving Hangul syllables or certain combining marks, might need to be reordered or composed. This result typically appears when the string contains characters that are not immediately classifiable as either definitely normalized or definitely not, so the system must do the slower, complete analysis to reach a final answer. In practice, encountering “Maybe” means the implementation cannot take the shortcut of assuming the string is already NFC, but it also does not need to reject it outright; it must proceed with the full algorithm to be sure.
