I hope this kind of super pedantic bug reports are welcome - if they are not please tell me and this will be the last one. This is fine because it's easy:

digit
A code point between U+0030 DIGIT ZERO (0) and U+0039 DIGIT NINE (9).

However this is not:

non-printable code point
A code point between U+0000 NULL and U+0008 BACKSPACE, or U+000B LINE TABULATION, or a code point between U+000E SHIFT OUT and U+001F INFORMATION SEPARATOR ONE, or U+007F DELETE.

I asked around to native english speakers and one answered When my son is learning to drive and I say stay between the lines I don't expect him to drive on them. :-D

So for a starter I would change that to:

A code point from U+0030 DIGIT ZERO (0) to U+0039 DIGIT NINE (9).

But for more explicitness, I would also add notation for intervals, or, better:

A code point from U+0030 DIGIT ZERO (0) (inclusive) to U+0039 DIGIT NINE (9) (inclusive).

Thank you in advance.
