This is what I mean about listening only to "non-whimsical" arguments
about the number of characters that need to be encoded.  If Earth does
get a visit from space aliens, I suspect character encoding will not be
the first problem that needs to be solved.

Please, let's not cloud the real issues of character encoding.
