Right, which is why I don't like the idea. But you don't need non-ASCII characters to blink an LED or turn a servo, and there is significant resistance to the notion that appending a non-ASCII character to a long ASCII-only string requires the whole string to be copied and doubled in size (lots of heap space used). But you need non-ASCII characters to display a title of MP3 track.
Agreed. IMO, any Python, no matter how micro, needs full Unicode support; but there is resistance from uPy's devs.
