Huh... just joining here but surely you don't mean a text string that doesn't use every character available in a particular encoding is "really bytes"... it's still a text string...

No, once it's in a particular encoding it's bytes, no longer text.

As you say,

Keep these two concepts separate and you should be right :-)
