Sorry, what is a conformant UTF-16 array op?
For starters, one that doesn't ever return lone surrogates, but rather interprets surrogate pairs as Unicode code points as in UTF-16. (This is not a Unicode standard definition, it's intended to be suggestive of why many app writers will be distressed if they must use Python unicode/str in a narrow build without a fairly comprehensive library that wraps the arrays in operations that treat unicode/str as an array of code points.)
