One of these languages is Sami. See, e.g., https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/W19-0307/

I suggest we don't worry about things that far in the future. We have another 17,909 years to figure it out and I'm sure those years will bring their own problems.

I saw Ottoman Turkish somewhere. The historical alphabets of Russian minority languages are relevant in so far that a considerable amount of print publications (books, newspapers, etc.) is available and currently under digitization.

Happy to include them as orthography with status: historical. If the historic orthography is a direct duplicate to another language, feel free to list them as inherit: xxx (see ota Arabic for an example).
