The 2 current amendments of ISO/IEC 10646 (The ISO sibling of Unicode) being processed are adding about 10 new scripts. And a new amendment will be initiated in September with few more scripts. Any scheme based on a finite number of scripts is doomed.

There may be 52 scripts currently encoded in Unicode, but I am sure Unicode does not claim that is the total number of scripts in the world.
Others can and will be encoded.
