    No project is ever safe from complicators.

    This is why we need the KISS enforcers.

      But the nice thing about UTF-8 is that this proposal isn't really a "complication", but a minimal and natural extension of the original idea to allow more than one lead byte.

        It starts like this, and ends up like x86.
