Have you actually ever written code that requires using code points? This feature is a *huge* convenience for when you do. Just compare:string nihongo1 = x"e697a5 e69cac e8aa9e"; string nihongo2 = "\ue697a5\ue69cac\ue8aa9e";ubyte[] nihongo3 = [0xe6, 0x97, 0xa5, 0xe6, 0x9c, 0xac, 0xe8, 0xaa, 0x9e];

string nihongo = "日本語";
