The bidi class of TAMIL SPENT SIGN is Other Neutrals (Neutral). It belongs to the neutrals. Whitespace and punctuation, which take on the directionality of the surrounding text..

The Other Neutral (ON) bidi class includes characters that do not have a strong directional preference and can appear in any text context without influencing the overall directionality. These characters include punctuation marks, symbols, and various other text elements that do not fit into more specific bidi classes.

Other Symbol (So) refers to a broad category of symbols that do not fit into the mathematical, currency, or modifier symbol categories. This includes a wide range of characters used in various contexts, such as zodiac signs, playing card symbols, and geometric shapes.

This character belongs to the Tamil Supplement block. The Tamil Supplement block includes additional characters that extend the basic Tamil block, used for writing the Tamil language, one of the oldest living languages in the world. Tamil is spoken predominantly in Tamil Nadu, India, and in Sri Lanka, with a significant diaspora around the world. The supplementary characters help in representing special phonetic sounds, religious symbols, and other linguistic nuances that are not covered by the basic Tamil block. These additions are crucial for scholars working on ancient Tamil texts, religious manuscripts, and for digital communication in Tamil. Unicode’s support for these characters ensures that the rich literary and cultural heritage of Tamil can be preserved and accurately represented in modern technology, from academic research to everyday use in messaging and social media..
