Combining marks and precomposed characters
The combining mark has its own Unicode code point. A precomposed character has a separate code point. When normalized to NFD, the characters listed here contain this combining mark. The display-only dotted circle is neither part of the mark nor part of the copied precomposed character.
For example, Ā (LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH MACRON) has the full NFD sequence below, including every combining mark in that decomposition. This is a Unicode sequence, not a typing shortcut.
