If you look at the typical use case for programs written in python (usually also in rough order of experience) A) directly in interpreter (i love that) B) small-ish one-off scripts C) middle size scripts D) multi-module programs made by a single person E) large-ish programs made by a group of people

You're missing "here is this neat code from sourceforge", or "Here is something I cut-and-pasted from ASPN". If those use something outside of ASCII, that's fine -- so long as they tell you about it.

If you didn't realize it was using non-ASCII (or even that it could), and the author didn't warn you -- then that is an appropriate time for the interpreter to warn you that things aren't as you expect.
