I think to be technically correct, 1 (UTF-8), 2 (UTF-16) or 4
(UTF-32) bytes are referred to as "code units" and the size of
a
code point varies in UTF-8 and UTF-16.
Yes, for UTF-8, a code unit is 8 bits, and there can be up to 6
of them (IIRC) in a code point.
Nooooooooooo!!! Only 4 maximum for Unicode. Beyond that it's
obsolete crap that is not Unicode since version 2 of Unicode.
