On the other hand I often need þ and ƕ.
Fi, ff, etc shouldn't be treated as new letters. As I understand it the font is just telling the engine "hey if these two are near each other display this instead", the underlying letters are still the same.

þ and ƕ may only come up in a search for þ or ƕ I don't run into those ligatures so I can't say.
