Specifically in the case of bytes.join(), the current common use-case of .join(...) would become something similar to bytes().join(...), unless bytes objects got a syntax... Or maybe I'm missing something?
I think what you are missing is that algorithms that currently operate on byte strings should be reformulated to operate on character strings, not reformulated to operate on bytes objects.
