The rationale claims there's no way to spell "native string" if you use
unicode_literals, which is not true.
It would be different from u('') in that I would expect that there are
far fewer instances where 'native string' is required than there are
places where unicode strings work (and should therefore be preferred).
This only matters now in order to make the PEP more accurate, but I
think that is a good thing to do.
