When I say "reinterpret", I mean taking the UTF-8 bytes and pretend
that they're UTF-16. This is an extremely clear bug whenever it happens.
The correct conversion between UTF-8 and UTF-16 is lossless.
The vast majority of systems, including file systems and email addresses,
support Unicode. I'm struggling to come up with an example where a
restriction isn't the result of lazy assumptions. It's not like we have
to pause and check that every link on the network path is 8-bit clean anymore.
